The Memorial Garden
The
church has traditionally been the natural repository
and final resting place for the mortal remains
of deceased member of the Christian community.
Cremation is simple, reverent and in accordance
with the teaching of the Episcopal Church.
St. Timothy’s Memorial
Garden is a beautifully landscaped area situated
among the trees on the east lawn. An attractive
curved brick wall surrounds the peaceful garden
area providing two options for a safe, permanent
and serene resting place for the remains of deceased
members of our parish and their friends and one
option for memorializing loved ones whose mortal
remains are interred elsewhere.
Interment
in the Garden Wall
The outer curved brick wall is the Columbarium
containing niches for the placement of the ashes
after cremation. A name plate affixed to the module
cover will be inscribed with the name of the deceased
and the years of birth and death.
Burial
in the Garden
Inside the Columbarium wall lies the Memorial
Garden, providing sites for the burial of ashes.
No marker shall be placed where ashes have been
interred. Instead, the name of the deceased with
years of birth and death will be inscribed on
a brass plaque located on the south side of the
center wall in the garden.
Memorials
Those who wish to memorialize a loved one interred
elsewhere may purchase a name plate for inclusion
on the brass plaque located on the north side
of the center wall in the garden.
Eligibility
Members, immediate family of the membership, and those approved by the St. Timothy’s Memorial Garden Trustees.
