Oakwood Cemetery is asking for the cooperation of the public to allow the natural beauty of the Cemetery to show through, by limiting to a reasonable amount the number of arrangements per grave, and thusly respecting the rights of neighboring lot owners who desire the same.

We greatly appreciate your cooperation in the above matters.

Information on monument and marker regulations is available at the Cemetery Office.
