Oak Park Cemetery considers everyone buried within its borders significant and the memory of their lives important. Many of the early residents of Claremont are resting at Oak Park. In 44 B.C. Cicero wrote, "The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the Living". He also said, "Memory is the treasure of all things and their guardian". Oak Park Cemetery is the guardian of the memories of all those resting within its borders. People like Eleanor Condit, L.N. Smith, William and Caroline Honnold, Thomas Barrows, Lee Pitzer and George G. Hitchcock just to name a few.
