Grass cutting and trimming
Our entire outdoor staff at New Calvary and Mount Calvary were out ill for 2 weeks with Covid and have just returned on Monday 5/3. We are behind preparing the cemeteries due to the loss of our staff. 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.
