- Canopy setup and chair arrangement to provide comfort to the deceased’s family and loved ones
- Closing and covering of the grave site
The division can also be of assistance in identifying the location of specific gravesites for guests by using software dedicated to tracking gravesite locations at both cemeteries. They will also assist in escorting the guest to the gravesite for accurate identification with ease.
