Whether you live far away, or can’t visit the grave often enough, or simply want to know that the grave is always well-kept and tidy, we offer special services for tending to a grave. From maintenance to the placing of wreaths to planting, here’s what we offer:
Special Care Program
This program provides extra care that’s above the regular care we provide. Order forms are mailed out at the beginning of April, or you can contact the cemetery directly for costs and details. Running from June through the end of August, it includes:
- Dedicated staff assigned to the grave/lot
- Extra watering and weeding of grass and flower beds
- Individual grass cutting, fertilizing and personalized shrub pruning
Flowerbed Program
For many, a simple touch of colour is all that’s needed. For an additional cost, we plant vibrant begonias at the grave for you to enjoy gorgeous blooms all season. Order forms are mailed out at the beginning of April, or you can contact the cemetery directly for costs and details. Running from June through the end of August, it includes:
- Planting by June 1st

Order forms are mailed out at the beginning of April of each year or you can contact the cemetery directly to get all of the details or to place an order.
Memorial Wreaths
A memorial wreath or a monument saddle is a meaningful way to pay tribute to the deceased. Wreaths, which are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, are displayed on the grave with a stand which is supplied with the wreath. Saddles are designed to be mounted on top of the monument. While saddles may remain all year, memorial wreaths may only be placed from November through March. Those wishing to reuse their wreath must remove it by March 31. After that, any wreaths left on lots will be removed and disposed of.
We typically mail our brochure and order form to our customers in late-September. If you have not received it, but would like to purchase a wreath, you can place your order by clicking on the ONLINE ORDER button, or contact your cemetery directly. Please have the section and lot number handy.
