Direct Cremains Burial

If a funeral home is not handling the burial services for you, then contact our sexton directly (see Contacts). Fill out a Burial Plan form and mail it with a check payable to "Rose Hill Cemetery" (see Prices). We handle the opening/closing only— no service planning, tent, or chairs. If you also need to purchase a lot, the sexton can help you with that too.

Engraving Existing Headstones

It may be faster to have your engraving added to the regional engraver's schedule by contacting Slade-O'Donnell Funeral Home (see above), as they typically coordinate multiple projects with the engraver. You may also reach out to monument companies for engraving services. Please note that engraving often takes several months. Some monument companies may expedite the process by transporting the stone to their facility for an additional fee. It's also suggested to delay final payment until the work is completed to help ensure it remains a priority. Send us an email about who you contacted so that we are aware to LamoniRoseHill@gmail.com.

Repairing Headstones

The cemetery has a local contractor fix sunken, leaning and toppled headstones in the oldest part of the cemetery, using limited cemetery funds, grants and donations. Families can contact us and pay to have family gravestones added to the list, which may cost less than $200.

The monument company that installed it may reset and reseal it on their next trip at little or no cost. If it is leaning, they may want to replace the foundation which can cost the family over a thousand dollars. The following local contractor offers less expensive solutions. Please email LamoniRoseHill@gmail.com about who you have contacted so that we are aware.
