The Westlawn Mausoleum. Up until the 1970's or so, Westlawn and Hillcrest were two separate cemeteries, and that's why only "Westlawn" appears on the mausoleum. This was the only one of it's kind in Omaha; Forest Lawn has just built a new mausoleum that is supposed to open in 2020 or 2021. 

 

Rock Springs Dairy originally operated on the land that Westlawn-Hillcrest now resides on; see the Prospect Hill section, and the information on John Paulsen, who owned the dairy. This is the back view of the mausoleum.
