We do have one pre-selected grave site option but your family is welcome to request a different location if they would like. Your Family’s wishes will be given priority and will be at no additional cost.
Additionally, if a cremation is chosen, we can assist with the placement of the ashes. A service has also been developed for those who are not ready to say goodbye or choose to have their remains scattered. There are many options available to make this process easier and more peaceful.
After the casket has been buried and the service has ended, we have a beautiful custom for families who choose to have us place an urn in their Family’s plot. We will come back to your family’s graveside, respectfully remove the urn from its container and place it in a beautiful bronze display case that is engraved with your family name. The urn will be surrounded by beautiful flowers and then returned to the cemetery’s chapel until your next visit. Your family can revisit it at any time by scheduling an appointment at our office or visiting during normal business hours seven days a week.
