Cemetery Association

A Cemetery Association is a non-profit organization responsible for managing and maintaining a cemetery. They oversee operations like ensuring proper burial spaces, maintaining grounds, and upholding cemetery rules and policies. These associations often operate or support the physical site, handle finances related to cemetery plots and services, and ensure respectful, orderly management of the property. Their goal is to preserve the cemetery’s dignity, provide for families' needs, and facilitate memorialization, often working with families, funeral homes, and communities to ensure the site is well cared for and accessible.
