Permitted at all times during growing
season. Flower holders or vases are to be the type that, when not in use,
can be inverted flush with the ground. These are available for purchase
in the Cemetery Office. Unfilled vases will not be allowed to remain up
after June 15. They will be removed or turned down into the ground receptacle.
POTTED PLANTS
Permitted ONLY on Easter, Mother’s
Day, Father’s Day, and Memorial Day. They will remain on the graves until
the next mowing cycle. Plants will not be held in storage, nor will the
cemetery be held responsible. We, therefore, ask the families to pick them
up, if they want to keep them.
PLANTING ON LOTS/GRAVES
Planting is permitted in some of
the old sections of the cemetery with permission of the General Manager.
Planting is prohibited in the garden sections to prevent injury to adjoining
lots and to preserve the beauty of the grounds. The Association will not
be responsible for plants damaged by windstorm, frost, hail, thieves, vandals,
or other causes not due to its own account.
ARTIFICIAL DECORATIONS
Artificial wreaths, flowers, sprays,
and blankets may be placed on the graves after November 1 and left there
until March 15. If such pieces are not removed by families by March 1,
they will be discarded by the cemetery in connection with Spring Clean-up.
Any artificial decorations on the graves between March 15 and November
1 will be promptly removed.
FLOWER VASES
Management strongly recommends that
all vases be turned down into the receptacle provided, no later than December
15. Vases left upright are subject to damage by or to park equipment when
covered by snow, or by water freezing and causing the vase to crack. The
cemetery is not responsible for these damages.
FLAGS
Flags are permitted on the graves
on Memorial Day only and must be removed immediately thereafter.
FUNERAL FLOWERS AT GRAVE
These flowers usually will remain
on the grave for three days, depending on the condition of the flowers
due to the elements.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
No fence, coping or enclosure of
any kind will be permitted on burial lots. The placing of shepherd’s staff
or hooks, chairs, stone benches, glass jars, iron or wooden crosses, trellises,
toys, metal designs and similar articles upon graves or lot is inconsistent
with the proper keeping of the grounds and will not be permitted and will
be removed.
COOPERATION
We ask the cooperation of every family
to help enhance the perpetuity and beauty of the cemetery. Thank
you for caring.
