The Annual Christmas Ecumenical Memorial Service will be held in the Chapel on Thursday, December 2, 2010 at 7:00 PM. We invite you to join us in this Tenth Annual Memorial Service as we honor the memory of all who are interred in Woodlawn or any other cemetery. Following the service and tree lighting, a collation will be held in Patton Hall. Co-Celebrants for the service will be Reverend Thomas Coots and Father Vincent Gianni. At 6:30 a music program will commence. The gates will open at 6:00 PM; seating is limited and may not be held for late arrivals. This program is not recommended for children under 12 years old.

Marker placement will cease on December 1st and foundation construction for upright monuments will end November 1st, weather permitting.
To ensure the safety of all visitors, we enforce traffic issues at all times.

All drivers must have in their possession a full and valid license. Student driving is not allowed.
Rubbish disposal on roadways, driveways, paths, walks or in any part of the grounds is prohibited. We will pursue violators of this policy vigorously.
We have received so many requests for genealogy research that we have had to initiate a minimum charge of $80.00 for any requests beyond a two person request.
