The cemetery board measures and lays out all purchased cemetery lots. On the day of the funeral, they accept the interment check and a copy of the death certification. Volunteers empty the trash cans and remove all decorations 10 days after a funeral. It is also the cemetery board's responsibility to remove all limbs that fall during a storm. If needed, we order snow plowing for winter funerals. In autumn, volunteers trim all the shrubbery in the cemetery. Decorations are cleaned from the cemetery on the Saturday before Palm Sunday and again in December on the Saturday, two weeks before Christmas.
