Many families choose cremation with the best intentions of keeping their loved one close to home. But over time, urns can become misplaced, forgotten, damaged by fire or flooding, or left without a permanent plan for future generations.

At Evergreen Memorial Trust, we believe families deserve peace of mind knowing their loved one’s remains are placed in a secure, permanent, and dignified location. That is the heart of the message behind “Gone Is Gone.” Whether through cremation interment, mausoleum placement, niches, or natural burial options, Evergreen Memorial Trust offers families lasting places of remembrance throughout Roanoke, Vinton, Boones Mill, and Buena Vista.

Gone Is Gone means your loved one’s final resting place is protected, cared for, and never uncertain.

This Day in Virginia History

On June 17, 1882, the Norfolk and Western Railway continued its expansion through the Roanoke Valley, helping transform the small community of Big Lick into what would soon become the City of Roanoke. The growth of the railroad brought new families, businesses, industries, and opportunities that shaped the region for generations to come.

Much of the history of the Roanoke Valley is connected to the people who built lives here, raised families here, and became part of the lasting story of this community. At Evergreen Memorial Trust, we are proud to serve places where local history, remembrance, and community continue to come together every day.

Grief does not follow a schedule, and there is no perfect way to move through the loss of someone you love. Some days may feel heavy, while others may bring moments of peace, reflection, or even gratitude for the memories shared.

One important thing to remember is that you do not have to carry grief alone. Talking with family, friends, clergy, or trusted members of your community can help lighten the emotional weight that loss often brings. Sometimes healing begins simply by sharing stories and allowing yourself to be heard.

At Evergreen Memorial Trust, we understand the importance of remembrance, reflection, and supporting families through every season of life. For more information, visit evergreenmemorialtrust.com or call 800-870-2593.

National Trail Day reminds us that some of the best walking paths are woven right into the communities we call home.

You can even join our walking club by visiting: https://evergreenmemorialtrust.com/walking-club/ and earn a free EMT T-shirt for your steps!

Not all trails are deep in the woods. The pathways through our properties are part of the fabric of Roanoke, Vinton, Boones Mill, and Buena Vista, serving generations of families and neighbors who value quiet spaces and meaningful places close to home.

Whether you enjoy a morning walk, an evening stroll, birdwatching, photography, or simply taking in the beauty of the outdoors, Evergreen Memorial Trust welcomes you to experience these community spaces.

What tree would you be? For families seeking a natural and meaningful form of remembrance, Evergreen Memorial Trust proudly offers the Be-A-Tree program at multiple EMT properties throughout our region.

Be-A-Tree allows cremated remains to become part of a living tree, creating a lasting connection to nature while providing families with a peaceful place for remembrance and reflection. Many people find comfort in knowing that life continues to grow through beautiful landscapes filled with trees, wildlife, changing seasons, and natural beauty. Each tree can also carry special meaning. An oak tree often symbolizes strength, endurance, and family legacy. A dogwood can represent peace, renewal, and grace. A maple tree is often connected to balance, beauty, and the changing seasons of life. Choosing a tree can become a deeply personal reflection of the life and values of a loved one.

This unique memorial option reflects a growing desire for simplicity, environmental stewardship, and a return to nature while still providing a permanent and dignified place of remembrance for future generations. What tree would you be?

At Evergreen Memorial Trust, we are honored to offer memorial choices that reflect the personal values, wishes, and traditions of the families we serve across Roanoke, Vinton, Boones Mill, and Buena Vista.
