AJ Cemetery Plantings
AJ strives to keep our cemetery clean and beautiful to honor the memory of loved ones who are buried there. Each spring, opportunities are made available for families to participate in cemetery beautification. Begonias may be ordered for individual gravesites in the AJ Cemetery. Additionally, a tax-deductible donation may be made to help fund Cemetery Beautification which includes such items as communal flower gardens, headstone cleaning, as well as other enhancements which take place throughout the year. Contributions are very much appreciated, and donors’ names will be listed in AJ's Newsletter. Please use this form to order begonias and/or to become a Cemetery Beautification Donor. You may also make these arrangements online by filling the form below.

The boxwoods which are planted on some gravesites have become very expensive to maintain. Therefore, as of January 1, 2020, boxwoods were no longer permitted to be planted in the AJ Cemetery. Boxwood plants which currently exist in the AJ Cemetery will be permitted to remain until such time that they either become overgrown, or deteriorate. However, no new boxwood orders will be accepted. We appreciate your understanding of the need to prioritize the dollars available to maintain the AJ Cemetery.
