Although the style and size of stones and other markers placed on individual grave sites is
largely a matter left to the discretion of the family, cemetery General Laws and Regulations have
some specific and general requirements. It goes without saying that a marker must be placed
entirely on one’s own deeded plot or plots.
Markers must be made of natural stone and shall not be of “bizarre or unconventional design.” If
in doubt, contact the Cemetery Warden before purchasing any stone or monument that differs
from the traditional themes or sizes normally found in the cemetery. When considering size, it
should be kept in mind that if a future interment requires that a stone or marker be temporarily
moved, an appropriate fee proportional to the size of the marker to be moved may be assessed.
Mausoleums are prohibited.
No fences or permanent plantings may be placed. The use of artificial flowers is regulated. Deed
holders should consult their copy of the General Laws and Regulations for a complete listing of
such rules
