It is one of the more difficult decisions we all face, yet one of the most important: Where will I be buried? An element of that decision is the dignity and respect with which you and your family will be served. That is our desire at Oconee Hill - not only to provide an eternal resting place for the deceased, but to serve the living with compassion.

Oconee Hill is an active cemetery with plots available. Please contact us for a consultation.

"As we recognize our freedom to attend our church of choice (or not to attend), to express our opinions or gather to discuss our beliefs and values, to be able to read the exchange of information openly in the press, to be able to defend ourselves and to understand that we have a system of justice, it is important to acknowledge that those freedoms are ours because of the many men, women, and families who stepped forward to defend them, and in that service, sacrificed their lives for us. Memorial Day is for them, all of them. It is our duty to remember the gift they have given us."

On this Mother's Day, we pause to honor the many who came to their final resting place here after years of dedication, love, wisdom, and care. We honor their legacy with gratitude for the trust placed in us by their families.
