The compassionate staff at Evergreen Memorial Park understands the profound
sense of loss that one feels when their pet dies. It is our goal to provide
understanding and comfort during this time of grief. The care and sensitivity
exhibited by our staff is a primary part of our service. While we cannot bring
your pet back, we can help you to create a beautiful and lasting memorial to
honor your pet and to perpetuate their memory.
Cremation Services
In order to accommodate those who wish cremation as an alternative to burial,
the cemetery maintains a state of the art crematory on the cemetery grounds.
We
offer a wide range of services including individual cremations as
well as same-day cremation service, memorial urns and appointments to witness
the cremation procedure.
Burial Services
Formal burial is arranged for much in
the same way that one would arrange for the burial of a human member of the
family. Burial arrangements can be made by telephoning our business office or by visiting the Cemetery. Your beloved pet will be treated
with the utmost dignity and care.
Since personal preferences and financial circumstances vary, we offer a
variety of options. Cost will vary, depending on your particular
selections: burial plot location and size, casket type and size, monument type,
etc.
Single in-ground burial lots are available 2'x4' for smaller pets and 6'x8'
for horses and other large pets. We will escort you through our beautiful
and historic grounds to help you select a burial lot location. We will also
show you a variety of affordable monuments. Appropriate arrangements for the date and
time of burial are made with the help of our staff.
Perpetual Care Areas
The Perpetual Care area has two sections, one for upright markers and one for
flat/flush to the ground markers. The price includes the lot, perpetual care and
opening and closing of the grave. Perpetual Care means that 15% of the lot price
and 10% of the marker price is placed in a perpetual care trust fund, an
irrevocable trust fund for the maintenance of the lot and cemetery, it protects
the land against abandonment and will ensure the future
maintenance of Evergreen Pet Cemetery part of Evergreen Memorial Park. Evergreen
Memorial Park is merely the income beneficiary of the trust fund and is not
permitted to withdraw any principal.
Once the lot and marker have been purchased no further payment for general
maintenance is necessary and the lot owner will have peace of mind knowing that
his or her lot will be a permanent part of Evergreen Memorial Park.
Approved flush stone or bronze markers may be placed on identified grave
spaces. No upright individual markers or upright crosses are allowed in flat
area. Above ground tombstone markers are allowed in upright section only.
Pasture Burial
Pasture burial where the "Buffalo Roam" for large pets is also available,
however visits to these graves is not allowed.
Graveside Services
For those who wish to be present for their pet’s burial, a funeral can be
tailored to meet your requirements. Viewing, visitation, and graveside services
are available for additional charges.
