Cemetery

Welcome to the Swancreek Township Cemetery Page. We are dedicated to maintaining a serene and respectful environment for those who have left us and providing valuable resources for families navigating end-of-life decisions. Explore this page to discover information about interment procedures, floral decorations, our Memorial Bench Donation Program, community initiatives, and essential forms.

We understand the importance of these matters and are here to assist you with compassion and professionalism. Thank you for entrusting us with the care of your loved ones and for being part of the Swancreek Township community.

INTERMENT PROCEDURES & FLORAL DECORATIONS

Notification and Interment: The Township requires a minimum two-business-day notification for scheduled interments. For Monday services, the deadline is 1:00 p.m. on the preceding Thursday. All grave digging is handled by cemetery employees. Inquiries about grave sales can be directed to the Administration Office.

Mowing Season Advisory: Between April 1st and November 30th, all flowers, potted plants, or decorations should be placed in urns and stone saddles, not on the ground, to facilitate mowing and maintenance. If items are placed on the ground in the mower’s path, they may be removed during mowing. Please note that we are not responsible for items removed in this process. Refer to the Cemetery Rules and Regulations in the forms section for more details.

FOUNDATION RATES

As of June 4, 2018, foundations are complimentary with the purchase of graves, as stated in resolution #118-18. If you need a foundation for graves purchased before this date, please utilize the order form and refer to the current price guide for accurate pricing details.

INDIGENT RESIDENT

RESOLUTION #05-46: In the event a township resident has deceased and is proved to be indigent, the township requires a direct cremation at the township’s expense. The cremains will be scattered in the Township’s choice of cemeteries, or the cremains will be given to the family. The option of donating the body to a medical college will also be allowed. The forms required to apply for this can be obtained by calling the township.

This policy is regulated by Ohio Revised Code #5101.52.1 and #1713.34.
