Good Grief had another great turnout at the park yesterday, despite the hot weather. They have had a very positive response this year and are happy to welcome several new members to the group. They have some fun events planned for August, including another Picnic in the Park on Sunday, August 21st (please rsvp by Monday, August 15th). Additional information is also available on our website: www.wcmp.org/social-events/good-grief-calendar/ Please help us spread the word about this amazing group!
Every summer we have free wildflowers available on the grounds, for visitors to put in their loved ones’ vases on their memorial markers. We have two large flower gardens which are in full bloom right now. Please stop into the office or give us a call and we can point you in the right direction!

No one wants to think about the time when he or she dies. However, if you do not make arrangements ahead of time, someone else will decide where you will be buried and how much of your estate will be spent. This person will most likely be a grieving member of your immediate family, and most people in this situation overspend, mistakenly equating a higher cost with greater love for the departed. By acting now, you can lighten your family’s burden when that time comes. Preplanning your cemetery arrangements – with your head and not just your heart – is an act of love that provides several financial and emotional benefits to your family, not to mention your own satisfaction in knowing that your wishes will be carried out to your personal specifications. Contact us for more information about preplanning and be sure to ask about our Family Legacy Program which offers discounted rates to families with loved ones interred at WCMP.
The beautiful flowers are eye-catching, but you may have also noticed these signs as you enter and leave the grounds. We offer a complementary book designed to help with planning arrangements and recording vital information. Not only does this ensure that your wishes are known, but it also takes some pressure off your loved ones, who won’t be left to make those decisions for you. Please stop into the office or call to request your Executor Guide Book, and we are also happy to sit down with you to answer any questions.
