Tree Memorials
Forest Hill Cemetery has put together a tree donation and fund to support the needs of the cemetery for many years. If you would like to purchase a tree you may do so. The following guidelines have been put in place to help you with this memorial decision.
1. You will need to make an appointment with the cemetery to determine which tree you would like to purchase.
2. We can help and show you places within the cemetery for you to have the tree
planted.
3. Forest Hill Cemetery will pick up the tree, plant the tree and maintain the tree.
The cost involved are broken down into the following categories:
• The cost of the tree will be determined after it has been picked out by the buyer.
The cemetery maintains a list of trees and cost to pick from.
• There will be a $25.00 planting fee
• There is a $50.00 maintenance fee – this is for five years and involves pruning and seeing
that the tree is watered its first year.
These signs will have the following message on them:
TYPE OF TREE
IN MEMORY OF ______________
DATE PLANTED
So, it may look like this:
Winterking Hawthorn
Crataegus viridis ‘WinterKing’
In Memory of John Doe
July 2009
If you do not want a specific tree to purchase and would like to donate money to our tree fund, we will put it towards the purchase of a tree. We will gladly accept any amount you wish to donate.
