How can families memorialize loved ones in our cemeteries? Let’s find out!

Flowers both real and artificial are welcome, but when they start to wilt, discolor, or are out of season, our staff will remove them to make way for new ones. We kindly ask that any decorations not be placed on or around the memorial and instead be placed in the memorial vase.

Our caring, professional staff are always honored to be of service, and they can also help you pick out grave markers and monuments that perfectly fit your loved one.

Did you know: While our staff maintain our spaces all year-round, we dedicate two weeks a year to our Annual Beautification Days from March 1 - 14.

During this beautification process, we will not remove a saddle from a monument or flowers/decorations in an approved cemetery vase. All other decorations will be removed. We never want to remove something that will be missed, so we would like to remind families to collect decorations before February 28 to ensure that beloved tributes stay with your family.
