In-Ground Burial

There are different types of markers or monuments from which to select if your preference is an in-ground burial space. There are both flat ground-level markers and above ground monument areas. A monument or marker can be placed on the site any time. These markers and monuments are actually placed on the site before or after a burial and will not need to be disturbed or moved for the burial process.

Sections of David’s cemetery that are currently available for burials include the following:

Section R of the cemetery is designed for flat markers. You may choose from bronze and granite flat markers available at David’s Cemetery to memorialize your space forever. This section of the cemetery has been arranged with four garden areas as well as a variety of trees. There is no planting allowed around the flat markers.

Sections F and H of the cemetery are designed for in-ground burial spaces with upright monuments. These two sections have been arranged with shrubs and ornamental grasses. There is no permanent planting allowed in these sections, but you may plant annuals in front of the monument. Upright monuments are available at David’s Cemetery.

 

Cremation

David’s Cemetery has several possibilities for consideration of cremations. These options include:

David’s has a beautiful Remembrance Circle or Scattering Garden. Here, ashes are scattered and a bronze name plaque is added to the obelisk granite marker for memorialization.

Cremations can also be placed in a niche in one of our Mausoleums. Niches can have a bronze, wood or glass door covering the front. An approved container can be placed behind the door.

Cremation remains can also be buried or interred in the ground. The cremation garden is in a lovely setting surrounded by flowering trees. No plantings are allowed in this sections. David’s has a cremation garden which provides 24” by 24” burial spaces. These spaces can be used for a burial of one or two cremations. The cost of the spaces includes a bronze flat marker and foundation. See the price sheet for details.

Another cremation option is to bury one or two urns in a full grave space, which would permit placing an upright monument or flat marker for memorialization.

Mausoleums

David’s Cemetery currently has three mausoleums. The first mausoleum, David’s Mausoleum has indoor and outdoor crypts. The second mausoleum is the Memorial Mausoleum. This mausoleum is a beautiful building with space still available. It contains stained glass windows and skylights. This mausoleum has all indoor crypts which allows year-round visitation in a climate controlled area. You may choose either a single or double shuttered crypt and may select from four elegant marble corridors. With six levels to choose from, you can achieve entombment in this elegant building at a cost similar to in-ground burial. See price sheet for details.

The Community Mausoleum ,opened in July 2008, offers both niche and crypt spaces. This newest mausoleum provides a Gathering Room that can be used for funerals, after-service gatherings, or community meetings and events.

Wilbert Burial Vault

The newest service that is provided by David’s Cemetery is the Wilbert burial vault. A burial vault is required by David’s Cemetery for in-ground casket burials. A vault protects the casket from the weight and pressures of the earth above and surrounding the grave. We offer six Wilbert burial products of high-strength concrete. The value of a Wilbert brand burial vault lies in the peace of mine that it is a structurally sound, finely crafted, reinforced burial vault offers your family.
