Plaques

Vases

For safety reasons, the cemetery and gardens do not permit the use of glass or ceramic vases or jars. We provide a range of appropriate and approved vases so clients can place flowers at an interment site within the cemetery.

Urns

Urns are available from the office for clients wishing to retain some of the cremated remains of a loved one away from the cemetery. Our friendly cemetery staff can assist with the purchase of urns.
