Winterizing the Cemetery

This is the time of year when the leaves are falling and the flowers are removed.  We are in the process of winterizing the cemetery.  Please remove any shepherd's hooks and other grave decorations before the snow falls.

It is also time to start thinking about ordering your cemetery wreaths.  Order forms are available in the cemetery office.
