She is in the office from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. If you are calling outside of those hours, leave a message with the name of the deceased, whether or not they already own a burial plot and the date and time of the requested burial. Move to Step 2 while you wait to hear back from her.

3. Pay the Open/Close Fee by mail, in the office or over the phone. This fee MUST be paid two business days before the service and before a grave will be dug.
