St. Luke's Memorial Garden was given in
1985 by Mr. and Mrs. James H. Beal, Jr. in loving memory of their daughter, Laura. |
 |
| The Memorial Garden is
located in a sheltered, sunny corner of the church yard and offers a place
of repose for the ashes of the dead and a place of beauty and solitude for
the living. The Garden is intended for former, present and future members of
the parish and is especially appropriate for those to whom St. Luke's has
had special meaning through the years. Cremation is an accepted practice in
the Christian world and fully consistent with the beliefs and practices of
the Episcopal Church. Members of the parish may make their wishes known to
the clergy. The Memorial Garden Committee together with the Vestry will determine fees for internment and engraving of names for the plaque. The fees are used for continual maintenance of the garden. Further information can be obtained from your clergy. St. Luke's
Memorial Garden was dedicated on April 21, 1985 by the Rector, Reverend
Raymond A. Low and blessed by Bishop David Johnson on April 27, 1986. |
