perpetual care

Perpetual care refers to the ongoing maintenance and management of a burial site, cemetery, or memorial after its initial establishment. This often includes landscaping, regular cleaning, and upkeep of gravestones and other memorials to ensure they remain in good condition over time. Typically, this care is funded through a trust or endowment established at the time of the burial or purchase, ensuring that future generations can visit and honor their loved ones in a well-kept environment.
