The Memorial Garden at the First Presbyterian Church of Eustis has been set aside as a place of celebration of life with God.  It is meant to be a place of rest, meditation and prayer.

Interment of Cremains
The Memorial Garden is available for the interment of cremains for members of the First Presbyterian Church or an immediate family member.  The cremains will be placed in an approved biodegradable container, or if preferable, cremains may be scattered.  The place of interment shall follow a plot adopted by the Garden Committee and on file in the Church office.  The name of each person with the year of birth and death will be permanently recorded on a plaque in the Garden and also on file in the Church office.  The planting, arranging and maintenance of the Garden shall at all times be under the supervision of the Garden Committee, and subject to final approval of the Session.  No flags, flowers or wreaths will be permitted in the Garden unless pertinent to a memorial service.

Method of Application
Arrangements for the interment of cremains may be made by filling out and signing the downloadable application.  This application will be filed with the Church office and will become a part a permanent file.  A copy of this application will be kept by the applicant or his or her designee and those authorized to carry out your wishes upon death.  Upon mutual agreement of the applicant and the Garden Committee, should circumstances prevail, this application may be voided. 
 

Garden Donations
Contributions are always welcome for additions and improvements to the Garden, subject to approval of the Session of First Presbyterian Church.  When persons request a plot in the Garden, donations may be put in a Garden Fund.  These donations cover interment, plaque and perpetual care of the Garden area, and do not cover any other donations relative to a memorial service.
