Conventional Casket Graves

Conventional casket graves accommodate two caskets, provided the first is buried extra deep, within a concrete liner. Conventional casket graves may also be used for the burial of cremated remains.  Memorialization options range from inscription rights on shared tablets to rights to erect a private memorial.
