Decoration Policies

Special Decoration Considerations

Special decorations can be placed for these holidays: Easter, Mothers Day, Memorial Day, Fathers Day, Veterans Day and Christmas.

Decorations can be placed starting the Friday before the holiday and may remain in place through the Sunday following the holiday, approximately ten days.

Any decorations not in vases at graves, crypts or niches are removed and discarded after each Special Decoration period, unless the family first removes it themselves.

General Rules

• The cemetery reserves the right to correct or remove at any time any decoration or planting that is unsightly, overgrown or violates any decoration policy.
