Two dates and times in May were discussed for the dedication of the Oakwood Memorial Chapel facility in Oakwood Cemetery Thursday by the board of regents.
A couple of days for the ceremony were discussed to give Warsaw Mayor Ernie Wiggins the chance to attend the ceremony.
Designed as a place to hold graveside services during inclement weather, six services have been held in the chapel.
So far, all comments have been favorable according to sexton David Shaw.
Board president Warren Tattler suggested pictures are needed on the walls and Lewis Dobbins recommended one be of the former chapel.
Shaw said 13 corner posts have been set along with six street signs and a planter box in Legion Circle.
In other business, the board approved 15 deeds to cemetery plots. Recording of the deeds are up to the property owner.
The next board meeting will be May 3 at 5 p.m. in the administrative building.
Cemetery board members are president Warren Tatter, Bob Sandy, Ellen Hoffer, Lewis Dobbins and Trish Brown.
