Unique Holiday Gifts from CHCF
With the holidays quickly approaching, Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation wanted to offer you some unique gift ideas for friends and family on your gift list.
1.) Jacob Weidenmann: Pioneer Landscape Architect. This beautiful table-top book shares the life and accomplishments of one of the world's pioneer landscape architects. Weidenmann's commissions include Bushnell Park and Cedar Hill Cemetery. Through December 30, Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation is offering author signed copies of Jacob Weidenmann: Pioneer Landscape Architect at 10% off the cover price - $47.65 (includes tax).
2.) Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation membership. Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation offers three levels of annual memberships. Memberships include reduced rates to tours and events, invitations to members-only events, and a one-year subscription to Cedar Hill Cemetery & Foundation's Gateway newsletter.
3.) Make a memorial gift. Remembering a family member's or friend's loved one through a memorial gift is a unique and thoughtful holiday gift. Memorial gifts made to Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation are recognized in Cedar Hill's Book of Remembrance located in the Northam Memorial Chapel and in the corresponding year's annual report. Memorial gifts can be restricted for a specific project or support the overall mission of the Foundation. Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation will inform the person for whom the holiday gift was made by sending a card detailing the memorial gift information.
4.) Arrange a private Cedar Hill Notables Tour for you and a group of your friends. This is a wonderful way to spend time with your friends while taking in the art, culture and history that Cedar Hill has to offer.

Thousands of Reasons to Visit Cedar Hill
Even though Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation's tours and events season has come to a conclusion for 2008, there are still thousands of reasons to visit Cedar Hill on your own. With more than 30,000 people interred at Cedar Hill, there are countless stories to be told and each monument tells us a little about each person interred here. Cedar Hill Cemetery Foundation also offers self-guide tour maps guiding you through the historic sections to the final resting places of some of Cedar Hill's most notable residents, including J.P. Morgan, Katharine Hepburn, and Samuel and Elizabeth Colt. We hope you will continue to visit Cedar Hill Cemetery in the coming months, and we look forward to seeing you again during our 2009 tours and events season.
