St. Marys, GA— The St. Marys EarthKeepers announce the commencement of the construction of the Memory Garden on the corner of Bartlett and St. Marys Streets beside Oak Grove Cemetery. This area, with its gazebo, landscaping and brick pathway, will be used for pre-and post service funeral gatherings as well as an enhanced greenspace for the pleasure of residents and visitors.
Inscribed bricks – to be included in the Memory Garden’s Tribute Pathway – are now available, in limited quantities. All members of the community are invited to purchase a brick that is engraved with the names of loved ones (pets included). According to St. Marys EarthKeepers Chair, Alex Kearns “This is an opportunity for everyone to pay tribute to both those who went before us and those still in our lives. The inscribed bricks make a wonderful and heart-felt gift of love, respect and honor.â€
