Thoughts About Riverview Abbey's History
By: Stephen Griffith
Riverview Abbey
Mausoleum Company was founded in 1916. The original building included just one corridor named the Lilac Corridor. It was built on property acquired in part from the Portland Clay Company in 1916. The endowment tract included 157 feet of frontage on Taylors Ferry Road in Portland.
By about 1934 they had constructed the south leg of Magnolia Corridor, Rose Room and the crematorium at Riverview Abbey. Next was Camellia Corridor, which utilized cast stone shutters as a less expensive alternative to marble shutters; and this was necessary since no one had any money, times were very hard.
A Funeral Home was added to the business at the Mausoleum site in 1977. Riverview Abbey Funeral Home provided an important new services.
Over 30,000 loved ones have been memorialized at our facility. The Mausoleum business has always worked hand-in-glove with the Funeral Home and is consolidated under the same family owner.
