Abstract: A columbarium includes a plurality of storage niches having a first shape and size and disposed about an outer surface of the columbarium. The storage niches form a center chamber having a larger capacity than the storage niches. One or more access niches provide access from an exterior of the columbarium to the center chamber. The access niche has a removable exterior element and an inner portion openable to the center chamber. A delivery system conveys remains from the access niche to the common center chamber. The columbarium has an inscribable designation section separate from the niches to memorialize those interred in the common center chamber. The designation section has a different, shape, size, finish, color or other characteristics to distinguish from the niches.
