New signage makes navigating easier

April 30, 2014 Shelley

More signs are appearing around the cemetery which are not only attractive, but a great help for visitors trying to navigate the vast acreage in search of a particular grave. This project to mark major avenues throughout the cemetery began over two years ago. The signs are created by students at Diman Regional Vocational Technical High School. Bravo!
