San Tan Memorial Gardens at Schnepf Farms

San Tan Memorial Gardens at Schnepf Farms San Tan Memorial Gardens at Schnepf Farms is a family-owned, perpetual care cemetery in Queen Creek.

San Tan Memorial Gardens at Schnepf Farms is a family-owned, perpetual care cemetery. The cemetery has been serving families for 10 years and is non-affiliated with any mortuary or funeral home. This means the cemetery serves families across the valley regardless of which funeral home they select to prepare their loved one's for their final resting place. Schnepf Farms owner Mark Schnepf, whose fa

mily has owned the 300-acre farm in Queen Creek, AZ for over 80 years, said his father talked of building a cemetery on the property in the 1970s, but "never got around to doing that." As a former mayor of Queen Creek, Mark knew the community always needed a cemetery, but since the value of land was only going up decided to donate a portion of the family farm for the creation of the first cemetery in the Southeast Valley - San Tan Memorial Gardens at Schnepf Farms. Whether your visit out to the property is for immediate need or Advance Planning, the cemetery has licensed and dedicated family counselors ready to assist you and your family according to your wishes. There is never any pressure or obligation to purchase anything at San Tan Memorial Gardens. The staff serves strictly according to your needs and wishes - nothing more, nothing less.

**What Does Perpetual (Endowment) Care Mean?**

One of the most common questions we receive is: *"What exactly is perpetual care?"*

Simply put, perpetual care helps ensure that a cemetery remains beautiful, maintained, and cared for long into the future.

These funds help support ongoing expenses such as:

🌳 Landscaping and grounds maintenance

💧 Irrigation and lawn care

🪦 Memorial and property upkeep

🚜 Equipment and maintenance operations

Perpetual care provides families with peace of mind, knowing their loved one's final resting place will continue to be cared for for generations to come.

❤️ It's one of the many ways we honor the trust families place in us.

One of the greatest gifts we can leave future generations isn't money or possessions—it's our story.

Family photos, military records, recipes, handwritten notes, favorite sayings, and personal stories help preserve a legacy that might otherwise be forgotten with time.

Have you ever wished you could ask a parent or grandparent one more question about their life?

Take some time this week to record a family story, label old photographs, or write down a memory worth preserving. Future generations may treasure it more than you realize.

❤️ What is one family story or tradition you hope is never forgotten?

**MYTH vs. FACT**

❌ **Myth:** Pre-planning is only for seniors.

✅ **Fact:** Many families begin planning in their 40s and 50s—or even earlier.

Why? Because planning ahead allows families to:

✔️ Make decisions without time pressure

✔️ Secure today's pricing

✔️ Spread payments over time

✔️ Remove uncertainty for loved ones

Most importantly, it ensures your wishes are known and your family isn't left guessing when the time comes.

Planning ahead isn't about age—it's about preparation and peace of mind.

When people remember you years from now, what do you hope they remember most?

Maybe it's your kindness.

Maybe it's your work ethic.

Maybe it's the way you loved your family, served others, or made people laugh.

The greatest legacies aren't measured by what we leave behind—they're measured by the lives we touch along the way.

Today, we honor the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures who have shaped our lives through their love, guidance, sacrifice, and example.

For many, Father's Day is a time of celebration. For others, it's a day of reflection and remembrance.

Whether your dad is beside you today or lives on in your heart and memories, we hope you'll take a moment to remember the lessons he taught, the stories he shared, and the impact he made on your life.

❤️ In honor of Father's Day, we'd love to hear from you:

What is one thing your father taught you that you'll never forget?

Happy Father's Day from all of us at San Tan Memorial Gardens.

Oftentimes when many people think of a mausoleum, they picture a dark or somber place. In reality, our climate-controlled mausoleum is bright, peaceful, and designed for comfort and reflection.

With beautiful granite and glass-front niches, families can create a lasting tribute while enjoying a comfortable place to visit throughout the year.

Many families are surprised by how warm and welcoming the space feels when they see it in person.

If you've never toured our mausoleum, we invite you to stop by and experience it for yourself.

As another week comes to a close, we invite you to take a moment to reflect on someone who made a lasting impact on your life.

Perhaps it's a parent who taught you the value of hard work, a grandparent whose stories still bring a smile to your face, a spouse who stood by your side through life's challenges, or a friend whose kindness you'll never forget.

The people we love continue to shape who we are long after they're gone. Their lessons, traditions, laughter, and love live on through the lives they touched.

Tonight, we encourage you to pause and remember someone special.

Who are you remembering today, and what is one thing you'll never forget about them?

❤️ We'd love to hear your memories in the comments.
