A Christian Cemetery
is a special place of memory, prayer, and reflection for the
living. We can also described it as a "Resurrection Garden,"
where the living await the Resurrection. The Faithful take care
of their cemetery with dignity and respect because it is a Holy
Place where religious ceremonies are held and our Loved Ones
buried .
The Cemetery of the Annunciation B.V.M. Church is a sacred
ground that is designated primarily for the burial of our
Catholic Parishioners. Because our space is limited we are not
selling to Non-Parishioners at this time. For supporting
Parishioners a limit of two plots may be bought at one time, per
family.
Flower and Plant Arrangements:
We kindly ask everyone to help us keep our cemetery in proper
order and neat appearance. You can truly help us by adopting the
following rules regarding the flowers and arrangements:
1. All flowers/plants should be kept in vases that are a part of
the headstone.
2. Flowers and plants should not be placed in front of or behind
the headstone except at the time of burial. These will be
removed/rearranged appropriately within the following week.
3. To show respect to this sacred place of our loved ones, only
religious symbols will be placed or engraved on the headstones.
Regular mowing and trimming is being taken care of by our
contract maintenance worker, but, please remember that the
cleaning of the individual grave is still the family
responsibility. Old artificial flowers are discarded
periodically, especially for All Souls & Saints Day and Easter.
