Water
Boston Water and Sewer will not turn on our water due to the pandemic so there is no water in the cemetery.
 
Grass cutting and trimming
We are behind preparing the cemeteries due to the increase in pandemic burials and numerous rainy days this spring. We are doing our best but our burials must come first. We have hired an outside landscape company to cut and trim the cemetery grass. They should have it completed by Memorial weekend. We thank you for your patience.
 
Restrooms
Portable restrooms are available as the restrooms in our office buildings are closed to the public.

Flags
The Cemetery does not place flags on graves. Volunteer groups place them each year. If there is no flag on a veteran’s grave please call Veteran’s Services in Boston at 617-635-3507.
Limited flags are available at our offices for veteran’ graves.
