Gardens of Memory Cemetery is a modern cemetery in Minden, the seat of Webster Parish in northwestern Louisiana. It was established in 1957 at 1527 Lewisville Road by Carlos S. Green (1908–1979) and Edward James Kleinegger (1906–1981), owners of the former Green-Kleinegger Funeral Home, since purchased and operated at 211 Murrell Street by the Rose-Neath Company of Shreveport.
Green came to Minden in March 1944 as a funeral home manager from Many in Sabine Parish in western Louisiana, where he was co-owner of the former Dennis-Green Funeral Home with Malcolm Oscar Dennis (1899-1944), a native of Leesville in Vernon Parish and a veteran of World War I who died of a heart attack shortly after arriving in Minden.
