LOTS

The Cemetery sells “Burial Rights.”  It does not sell property.

1) The purchase of a lot does not transfer ownership of a parcel of property but is the transferring of the right of burial on the lot purchased from the Cemetery to the lot owner.

Ownership of burial rights automatically passes to the heirs of the original purchaser.

2) The ownership of burial rights to any lot in the Cemetery passes to the heirs or assigns of the original owner or owners as stated on the certificate of ownership.

Lots or Burial Rights must be sold back to the Cemetery, they may not be sold between individuals.

3) The Cemetery does not allow the ownership of burial rights to be sold by any lot owner.  The lot may be returned to the Cemetery and the pro-rated purchase price will be refunded for any unused portion of the lot.  In some Sections of the Cemetery the entire lot must be returned, the Cemetery will not accept back a portion of the lot.

Lots must be paid for in full before a burial can be made or any improvements made to the lot.

4) Before any burial is made in a lot, the lot must be paid for in full.

Lots are for the burial of the human dead only.

5) No lot shall be used for any other purpose than the burial of the human dead.

The Cemetery has installed fences, gates are closed at night and a security system is at place on the grounds.  We assume no other liability.

6) The management will take all reasonable precautions to protect lot owners, and the burial rights of lot owners, within the Cemetery from loss or damage:  but the Cemetery disclaims all responsibility for loss or damage from causes beyond its reasonable control.

Lot Owners should notify the Cemetery of any change in address.

7) It is the duty of the lot owner to notify the Management of any change in their post office address.
