Westside is located approximately 5 miles southwest of Grove Place Cemetery near the corner of Stryker and Chili-Scottsville Road, near the Chili American Legion Post.

Westside has approximately 8 acres of developed and landscaped property with another 18 acres reserved for future development.

The graves in these areas are reserved for Veterans and Emergency Services personnel and their spouses. Discounted prices for are offered for those who have served in these areas. In 2019 we developed Section B, which consists of over 100 graves – all of which are East Facing.
The cemetery is non-denominational and continues to carry on the commitment made by the founders. Grove Place Cemetery Association is governed by a Board of Trustees, and in conformity with the Rules and Regulations of the State of New York, Department of State, Division of Cemeteries. Many families have chosen Westside Memorial Gardens as their final resting place; a living commentary on the care and constant maintenance of the cemetery.
