CEMETERY REMINDERS
​PLEASE REMEMBER THAT WHEN YOU ARE PLACING ITEMS ON EITHER OF THE CEMETERIES IN BROWNVILLE, THEY NEED TO BE PLACED IN A MANNOR THAT STILL ALLOWS FOR CONVENIENT MOWING AND WEED WHACKING.
​
THIS YEAR THERE HAS BEEN AN ABUNDANCE OF ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS AND TRINKETS. THIS IS CAUSING AN INCREASE IN THE TIME NEEDED TO TEND THE CEMETERIES, AS THE CREW NEEDS TO STOP AND MOVE THEM SO NOT TO RUIN THEM.
IF PLANTING LIVE FLOWERS AND THEY NEED TO BE TENDED REGULARLY AND NOT LEFT FOR OUR CREW TO TAKE CARE OF. THERE ARE SOME STONES THAT ARE NO LONGER VISIBLE BECAUSE OF THIS.
​
ALSO, REMEMBER THAT OUR CEMETERIES ARE CARRY IN AND CARRY OUT PROPERTIES. DO NOT LEAVE TRASH AND RETURNABLES FOR US TO CLEAN UP. (THIS INCLUDES BOTTLES AND CANS OF ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRINKS THAT ARE LEFT FOR LOVED ONES).
