SEVERE WEATHER & GROUNDS SAFETY

Please avoid entering the cemetery during severe weather or hazardous grounds conditions.

During snow, ice, flooding, high winds, severe storms, or other hazardous conditions, do not enter the cemetery by vehicle or on foot. An open gate does not indicate that the grounds are safe for entry.

Current Weather & Alerts

Weather and grounds conditions determine whether entry is safe. Gate position should not be relied upon as an indication that the cemetery is safe to enter. When hazardous weather or grounds conditions are present, please do not enter the cemetery.

Important Information & Disclaimers

Foundation Fee Policy: Monument foundations are required for cemetery monuments. A pre-poured or pre-existing foundation does not mean the foundation fee was prepaid or included with the grave or interment. Foundation fees are assessed when the foundation is used for monument installation, and all foundations remain cemetery property.

An open gate does not indicate that cemetery grounds are safe. Walking on graves or lawn areas during hazardous conditions is not permitted. Weather may create dangerous surfaces. By entering the cemetery, visitors assume all risks. The cemetery disclaims liability for injuries, including slip-and-fall incidents.
