Richard,
The first obligation is to notify your county health department, they will
give you all of the details as to what permits you will need and who to
contact. There are several fees to be paid, permits to remove the body,
transporting a body and reburial in another cemetery. A licensed mortician
should be able to answer any question you have.

Anybody have an idea as to how much it costs to move a body or 2 or 3? No
stones, no vaults. 1890-1920's vintage. Family wants them out of the way of
the plow before they're lost forever.

THIS IS A CEMETERY -----
"Lives are commemorated - deaths are recorded - families
are reunited - memories are made tangible - and love is
undisguised. This is a cemetery.
"Communities accord respect, families bestow reverence,
historians seek information and our heritage is thereby enriched.
"Testimonies of devotion, pride and remembrance are carved
in stone to pay warm tribute to accomplishments and to the life -
not the death - of a loved one. The cemetery is homeland for family
memorials that are a sustaining source of comfort to the living.
"A cemetery is a history of people - a perpetual record of
yesterday and sanctuary of peace and quiet today. A cemetery
exists because every life is worth loving and remembering - always."
