WE'VE BROKEN GROUND!
On May 4th we broke ground for our new MEMORIAL PLAZA, which is targeted for completion by the end of July. This plaza will HONOR VETERANS with flags for each of the service branches as well as a monument to all veterans past, present and future who have bravely served our country. The center of the plaza will feature a unique twelve bowl FLOW FORM FOUNTAIN designed to provide a healing experience to soothe both the ear and the eye.
Upon completion, the plaza will be AVAILABLE TO THE COMMUNITY for committal and memorial ceremonies, memorialization of family members and quiet reflection. The area will also offer two new interment options for cremated remains: above ground NICHES and a SCATTERING GARDEN. In keeping with our green philosophy, the fountain and the landscaping are designed for low water use and minimal or no use of any chemicals. Landscaping will be completed in the fall of 2009.
WE ARE CURRENTLY ACCEPTING TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS FOR THIS EXCITING NEW PLAZA. An architectural model is available for view at the cemetery office. Please call 530-756-7807 for more details.
