Cemetery Preservation effort

June 6, 2026:

 

The cemetery committee will soon begin a Cemetery Preservation Effort that will take place over the next several years. As part of this work, we will be addressing gravesites that do not currently follow cemetery guidelines.


These guidelines are in place to help ensure the long-term care, safety, and sustainability of our cemetery. Items such as edging, stones, woodchips, and overgrown shrubs, while often placed with love and care, can make regular lawn maintenance difficult and increase the cost of upkeep.


In the coming months and years, letters will be sent to families of affected gravesites, asking that any necessary adjustments be made within a reasonable timeframe. In addition to mailed notices and bulletin announcements, flags will be placed near certain headstones as a gentle request to take a look at the cemetery rules and/or contact or visit the parish office to discuss any needed changes.


If updates are not made within the given timeframe, the cemetery committee may proceed with the necessary adjustments to preserve the overall care and appearance of the grounds.


We understand this may come as a surprise, and we approach this process with great respect and sensitivity. Our hope is that, together, we can care for this sacred space in a way that honors our loved ones while ensuring it remains beautiful, sustainable, and cost effective for generations to come.


Please take a few moments to review the Cemetery Gravesite:

Following internment, graves will be covered with seed. We do not have staff that can regularly water. Family and friends are welcome to help with this effort.

 

  • No trees or shrubs may be planted.
  • Live flowering plants may be placed 1 foot to the front and/or side of grave markers 
    (Markers with name/date inscriptions on both sides can have flowers on both sides).
  • Artificial flowers or other decorations may be placed 1 foot to the front or side of marker, and must be removed as soon as they become unsightly or maintenance will remove.
  • Edging, fencing, curbing, special stones, mulch and the like are not allowed.
  • No benches on graves.
  • The cemetery reserves the right to remove any and all objects deemed necessary due to any violation of these guidelines or to inhibit necessary maintenance.
  • The maintenance of monuments, tombstones, markers, etc. is the responsibility of the plot owners.


Markers which have fallen into disrepair and /or pose a danger to visitors may be removed.

The office will make every effort, within reason, to contact owners regarding this prior to any action.

Our common purpose here is to memorialize our beloved deceased at their graves while maintaining

the overall order and beauty of the cemetery grounds. We thank you for your cooperation.

 

Sincerely,

 

St. Martin of Tours Cemetery Committee and Staff

Columbarium

In mid July of 2024, construction of the columbarium plaza was completed. It is located just south of the Lady of La Vang statue on the west side of the cemetery. Our 96 unit columbarium arrived in October 2024.  The following spring, the Angel statue (courtesy of the Christian women group) and several benches were added in the middle of the plaza. Restoring the surrounding landscape followed.


For more information contact the parish office.  Click here to see the layout and availability of niches.
