Floral Tribute Program

Honor your loved ones with annual and ever-changing floral arrangements. We will place a beautifully arranged bouquet at the location of your loved one, season after season.

The types of flowers – either fresh or silk – in the arrangements will vary, depending upon availability and weather. A fresh evergreen wreath with a red bow will be the selection during the holiday season.

An acknowledgement, with the name of the one you are honoring, will be sent to you when each arrangement is delivered.

Genealogical Research

We will gladly look to see if an individual is buried in our cemetery and if they are, we will give you the burial date. Just call, write or email. Further research requires a fee of $5 for each individual you want to research payable upon request (cash, check, Mastercard and Visa). Our records usually contain date of death, place of birth, place of death, late residence and age. We will share other interesting facts if we find them. For research inquiries, please contact Sheri at skohler@bellefontainecemetery.org and allow 6-8 weeks for a reply.
