Cemetery rules and regulations are subject to change.
- The burial of other than human remains is strictly prohibited in Resurrection Cemetery.
- Decorating the grave with flowers is welcomed and encouraged. In order to keep the lawn mowed & trimmed so as to be attractive for these visits, plants, artificial flowers, decorations or ornaments can only be present during the mowing season if they are in a plant stand or shepherds hook with a single post. Plant stands may be placed at grave sites after May 1st and must be removed by October 1st. Resurrection Cemetery does not store stands over the winter months.
- Flowers, plants and decorations placed directly on graves will be removed and discarded before each mowing. Bouquets or artificial arrangements that are staked into the grave area will also be removed and discarded. Glass containers are not permitted. Plantings are never permitted.
- From November 1st to March 31st, evergreen wreaths or swags set on a wreath stand (available at nurseries) are welcomed and encouraged. Christmas trees are not permitted.
- Floral or memorial displays are not permitted on the sidewalk surrounding or inside the Mausoleum. If you would like to purchase a bronze vase to affix to the granite face of a niche or crypt to hold either live or artificial flowers, please contact the Church Office to place an order.
- We understand that after decorating a grave, you may not be able to return to maintain the decoration. Staff will remove floral arrangements and flowers (natural or artificial) when, in our best judgment, they become unsightly or do not conform to cemetery regulations. Anything that you do not want to be discarded should be removed by the owner. The parish will not be responsible for items that are discarded.
