During the winter months only three funeral pieces will be left on the grave, unless prior arrangements are made with the cemetery from December 1st to March 1st.

Winter clean up will begin on March 1, 2013 weather permitting. If you wish to save any decorations, please remove them prior to March 1, 2013. Christmas decorations may be removed prior to the general clean up depending on weather conditions.

Floral renewal notices will be mailed on or about February 1, 2013. If you do not receive an invoice by March 1, 2013 and wish to order Flowers, please contact the office. Begonias only will be offered for flat markers. To guarantee a Memorial Day planting, flower beds must be ordered by April 25th.

Artificial decorations of any nature are permitted between the periods of November 1st and March 1st. Cemetery personnel will remove any non-conforming decorations, as well as live potted plants that have passed their life cycle.

New sections of single graves that can be marked with an upright monument have been opened in the Maplewood Section. These graves are for two burials and include a lawn crypt to receive the casket and foundations for the monument. The monument must be two foot wide, three foot high and one foot thick and constructed of gray granite.

Flat marker single graves are available in the Maplewood or Restland sections. These graves for two burials include the lawn crypt to receive the caskets. They may be marked with either a bronze of granite flat marker two foot by one foot. The marker type is determined by the section selected.

Triple depth graves are now available in the Richardson's Way section. When two graves are not enough and four graves are too much, these graves are the perfect solution. These graves include a single triple depth lawn crypt and the foundation to place a three foot high by two foot wide by one foot thick upright stone constructed of gray granite.

Holiday decorations are allowed one week before the holiday and are removed 1 - 2 weeks after the holiday.

Installation of markers/foundations will commence after the spring thaw, approximately April 15, 2013.
