We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday. For those of you who have decorations on your loved one's grave, at this time there is no snow on the ground. The temperatures are in the 40's to 50's this week. It would be a good time to get your decorations. If not you need to take them off no later than February 28th. Weather permitting our crew takes them off the grave on the first day of March and they are disposed of, for we do not have a place to store all the decorations. If you need help please come during office hours and our crew will be more than happy to help you.

We are wishing you and yours a Happy New Year!
