MISSION STATEMENT

The Department of Cemeteries’ goals are to maintain the four municipal cemeteries (Edgell Grove, Old South, Edwards, and Main Street) for the City of Framingham, to provide options for future internment in these cemeteries, and to provide avenues to highlight the lives of those whose perpetual care was entrusted to these cemeteries. 

With utmost professionalism, empathy, and attention to detail, we strive to offer exceptional burial and memorialization services, ensuring the highest standards of care, aesthetics, and accessibility. Through our commitment to maintaining the solemnity and beauty of our cemeteries, we aim to provide solace and comfort to bereaved families, while upholding the rich history and heritage of our community.

Our mission is to maintain and enhance the cemeteries under our care as sacred and tranquil spaces, honoring the memory of loved ones and preserving their legacies for future generations.
