COLUMBARIUM
The Town of Delisle has purchased a 24-niche columbarium for the Delisle Cemetery. (see example below)
A columbarium is a structure for the respectful and public storage of funerary urns, holding cremated remains of the deceased. Each space in the structure is called a niche and they are capable of holding two urns. Not everyone wants to be interred in the ground or wants to keep the ashes of a loved one displayed in their home.
The cost of a niche is $800.00 plus taxes and the bronze plaque to go on the niche is $725.00 plus taxes. This includes the original plaque and one extra date plaque. Any additional date plaques would be $50.00 plus taxes.
The total cost for the purchase of a niche would be $1,525.00 plus applicable taxes.
