COVID has changed so many things in our daily lives, including the delivery rules at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery.
Under normal circumstances, Irene's Florist is able to deliver flower arrangements for funerals taking place at the cemetery. Since the onset of COVID, the cemetery office is no longer allowing deliveries unless they are delivered directly to the Pavilion where the service is taking place. The problem with that is (unfortunately) the Pavilions aren't assigned until the procession leaves the front gate, and Jefferson Barracks is a huge cemetery.
Families CAN pick up flowers and take them in directly themselves, so that's how we've been working around the COVID rules. Since we are located so close by, the family just picks up the floral arrangement at our shop and takes it with them.
These rules DO NOT affect the grave placements we make at Jefferson Barracks. You can still order from our "Jefferson Barracks" section on the website, and we'll place flowers on your behalf at JB, and email you a photo of the placement.
Remember to order early for holiday grave placements. We plan to have our usual supply of grave blankets, greenery wreathes, baughs and holiday floral arrangements available for placement!
