FAMILIES
If it is confirmed that a new grave has been without an “estate provided headstone” for longer than six (6) months, then a 10″ x 16″ grey granite headstone will be provided with the decedent’s first name, last name, birth date, and death date.
You are more than welcome to help celebrate your loved one with flowers. Please note that starting May 2020, all flowers must be placed in flower holders.
Because the PAACC is a 501(c)3 organization, all donations including gate fees and membership fees are tax deductible.
As of May 2020, the annual PAACC membership fee is $100/year. Paying this fee each year secures your “Member-in-Good-Standing” status.
This is a very good question.
The very first thing you can do is verify the decedent’s membership status. Verifying the decedent’s membership status will let both the funeral home and the PAACC know the fee amount that the family must pay in order to bury a family member in the cemetery.
To verify a decedent’s membership status, you can call contact the funeral home who will be handling the decedent’s services. The funeral home will then know how to contact the PAACC to verify decedent’s membership status.
