What is so special about Jefferson Memorial Cemetery’s new Garden of Faithful Friends?
It is the option for pet owners to either purchase a single lot for their pet or they can purchase property within the garden for themselves to be buried with or near their beloved pet. And, Yes. You can pre-purchase for your pet just as you have done for yourself. Those who have already purchased lots at Jefferson and have no interments can transfer their lots to Faithful Friends.
The Garden of Faithful Friends
The passing of a pet can leave a pet’s family with an aching heart much the same as the loss of a family member or a very dear friend. What pet owners have been asking for is here; a place for your beloved pet that has given you unconditional love and companionship all their lives. We all love our pets and want to know they are in a safe and respectful place.
“In our gardens repose the remains of those that possess beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity, and the virtues of man without his vices: our pets.”
~Lord Byron
Pet Visitations
Many Pet Parents find that having a brief period of “visitation” with their pet before interment is just as important for them as for those mourning the loss of a human companion. Jefferson Memorial Cemetery has a comfortable place where your family, friends and other pets can gather for sharing and support. The visitation process can be a healthy aid when grieving your pet. It is a process that promotes healing and perhaps, in time, may lead to the adoption of another furry friend.
