The Division of Park Maintenance & Properties provides burial services and cemetery maintenance. If a family wishes to purchase a grave, they may visit the cemetery office at either 21400 Chagrin or 3942 Ridge to determine if the Cemetery of their choice has graves for sale, as not all City cemeteries are active.
