PLANNING AHEAD, CEMETERY PLOTS

Purchasing a plot now protects from you from any price increases. In addition, purchasing a plot now saves the family much stress of having to pay it in full on the day it is needed.

We also have a single plot for sale in the Garden of David section of Sparkman-Hillcrest.

For information about the purchase of cemetery plots contact Stanley Siegel at 972-618-2200 or ssiegel@nishmatam.org.
