About Good Shepherd

Rustic, rural, and serene, Good Shepherd Cemetery occupies 100 pristine acres in West Antelope Valley. Its gravesites are surrounded by beautiful panoramas, from the painted desert to fields of poppies.


Its lawns are decorated with native trees and biblically themed sculpture. Although the newest Archdiocesan cemetery, Good Shepherd reflects the fullness of ancient and modern burial traditions. Join us for special Masses and prayer services during the year.
