HOW CAN I CHOOSE A CEMEMY WISELY/!
Like all the major purchases of
your life, the choice of a final
resting place should b e made
with care. Inspect several
cemeteries, making note of the
conditions of the grounds a n d
markers. Do not be afraid to ask
questions of t h e cemetery's
directors.
Here are a few
questions which should be
considered:
• Who owns and manages the
cemetery?
* Are there rules about placing
flowers on graves or t h e times
one may visit?
* Is the location satisfactory?
< If you move to another city,
can you resell the lot?
• D o you prefer a cemetery
with monuments or a memorial
garden, with only flush lawn
markers?
*
•
»
Is t h e cemetery*
rtonsectarian or devotedtoone
faith?
,_
•Is there a fund (money for*upkeep)?
If s o , w h o , *
aorrdnisters it?
