With Memorial Day coming up, I thought list members might be interested in
this information.

When I was in Pennsylvania a few years ago, I stopped in the office of the
Monongahela Cemetery and asked if they knew of anyone I could pay to plant
flowers on graves, and keep the flowers weeded and watered. They said they,
the cemetery, would, for $15 a grave, plant geraniums and marguerites, keep
then watered and weeded, from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Since I live in Northern California and can't care for the graves myself, I
think this is a wonderful service and have just paid (for the third year) for
some of my ancestors. (Paying for all of them would bankrupt me.)

If interested, the deadline is MAY 18, 2001, and requests should be sent to:
MONONGAHELA CEMETERY
POST OFFICE BOX 164
MONONGAHELA PA 15063
