Getting all
the facts
straight •

Novi—Some people have been
misinformed about the new B'Nai
Israel Memorial Gardens as being
non sectarian. This is false, as ive
are a strictly Jewish cemetery
obeying all the laws of Jewish
burial. In fact this is the first
Jewish cemetery in almost 45
years!
Also some people think we are
part of Oakland Hills Memorial
Gardens. We are not! Again, we
are not a garden, section or part
of Oakland Hills Memorial
Gardens, although we engage the
same professional maintenance
crews. B'Nai Israel Memorial
Gardens is a separate entity and
have their own entrance, name
and address. We are not affiliated
with this adjacent cemetery. We
are a division of The Michigan
Cemetery Management Inc.
Another area we would like to
clear up is the subject of perpetual
care. Today there is an irrevocable
trust fund regulated by Michigan
law to insure the perpetual
maintenance, development and_
beautification of the cemetery
grounds and grave sites.
In essence, family and relatives
will never be asked to maintain
the grave or be called upon to pay
for anything for upkeep in the
future!
We hope this sets all the facts
straight that B'Nai Israel
Memorial Gardens is not non sec-
tarian, not part of Oakland Hills
Memorial Gardens and that your
purchase does include perpetual
care.
If you need more information,
please feel free to call 348-3711.
