Monuments/Headstones

When purchasing a grave site in the cemetery, you are only purchasing the ground. The cost of the ground DOES NOT include the cost of the foundation. Every monument/marker/headstone that is erected in the cemetery must have a foundation, which is to be paid for to the monument dealer where you are purchasing your monument. We will NOT accept advance payment of foundation fees; the fee must be submitted by your monument dealer.
 
We DO NOT permit monuments to be purchased online. We do not accept monument deliveries of monuments, or place monument on grave sites - monuments must be erected by a licensed monument dealer or monument setter.  We advise that you place your order though a local reputable monument dealer. Before placing an order for a monument the monument dealer should call the cemetery to verify the size and style requirements for the section in which the monument/marker/headstone will be erected. The cemetery is not responsible for inaccurate information given to you by the monument dealer or funeral director. It is your ultimate responsibility to check and verify accuracy.

Timelines for foundation orders:
Inscription and pre-poured foundations will be processed within 2 weeks of receiving payments.
All other foundation orders have a minimum 6 - 8 week processing period.

We DO NOT pour foundations from December 1st through March 20th, later start depending on weather and availability of concrete delivery. 

Despite our pouring schedule, we suggest that monument dealers send orders in EARLY to be put in line for our upcoming concrete delivery.
​
We will not rush a foundation order due to negligence on the monument dealer's part for not submitting the foundation order request when the family initially places an order for a monument.

Temporary Markers

Currently, the cemetery approves temporary grave markers to be placed on a grave site. They must be a typical temporary grave marker and may only stay on the grave for up to one year beyond the date of death. The cemetery is NOT responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged temporary markers. The cemetery is NOT responsible for temporary markers that are put on the wrong grave site (as family members generally place the markers without knowing the exact grave location or move them due to confusion of where their grave is located). We advise the lot owner to purchase a permanent monument in order to assure they are visiting the proper grave site. The cemetery reserves the right to ban temporary markers at any time.
