A memorial suite provides a safe and comfortable place for surviving family members, friends, and loved ones to mourn, research and visit decedents. The memorial suite takes advantage of air space rather than burying caskets containing human remains in the ground. A storage area is provided within the memorial suite that includes horizontal shelves that support receptacles thereon. Each receptacle is provided for storing interment vessels or air-tight caskets containing remains of the decedent. A tribute wall may include plaques bearing images and descriptive information about the decedents. The memorial suite may include some or all of the comforts of a living room and other rooms within a family home.
