No, glass vases are not allowed in the cemetery at all. Vases that are made of a compliant material and are attached to the base of the monument are allowed. Another option is an inverted vase that can be purchased from a local monument company, or a piece of PVC pipe that is flush with the ground to put artificial flowers in.
These items are allowed as long as the items are on the monument and are not in the way of mowing and/or weed eating. The items are allowed for a period of two weeks. After that time or when they become a hazard to mowing they will be removed. If you want the items, please remove them before the two week period ends.
Lots may have benches of marble, granite, concrete, or material approved by the cemetery commission. Any other structural amenities, which must also be primarily of marble or granite, must have the approval of the cemetery commission before being placed on the lot.
The meetings are held on the 4th Wednesday of the month. See the posted Agenda for time and location.
