Holmes Family Cemetery Information This is to remind everyone that the Holmes family cemetery is a pri vate cemetery. As such, control and decisions regarding this cemetery are the sole responsibility of the family appointed managercaretaker. Merle Holmes has been the family managercaretaker for some time. Before his passing, he transferred this responsibility to me, Mel Holmes. I can be reached at 503-363-2543 to discuss all activities and issues regarding the regarding the cemetery prior to any action being taken. This includes the sensitive issue of burials. Other issues regularly encountered that need to be discussed include gravesite location, the type of flora planted within the cemetery, and the removal of non biodegradable decorations. My intention is to continue the basic management philosophy of our family and recently departed Uncle Merle. My hope is that the natu ral beauty of the cemetery and surrounding area can be maintained with cooperation of all parties. Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
