History

Memory Chapel Funeral Home and Memory Hill Gardens have over 50 years of dedicated and compassionate service to Tuscaloosa families.

Walton and Biggs

In 1957, C.L. Walton began development of Memory Hill Gardens on 50 acres of land on what was then called the US 11 Bypass. Walton continued to develop the cemetery in Tuscaloosa until his death in 1959. Max Biggs then continued to expand and develop our perpetual-care cemetery in Tuscaloosa. With foresight that was unheard of in that day and keeping our families in mind, Biggs built Memory Chapel Funeral Home in 1966.

Today, both the funeral home and cemetery are members of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery providers.
