Get Yours Now! Sale of Cemetery Plots!!
Eden Memorial Park
 
Limited Time Offer!
Sale of Cemetery Plots to Arbeter Ring Members!

 

To our members (and prospective members): 

 

One of the historic benefits Arbeter Ring has always offered to our members is reasonably-priced cemetery plots. We have several remaining plots in the beautiful Mount Shalom South section at Eden Memorial Park which we are offering to our members at well below market rate. This section is sold out, but if plots were available there or in comparable sections, they would go for upwards of $9000 each. We are offering these plots to our members at the very attractive price of $6500, but only until Rosh Hashone this fall, or as long as they last. At that point, if we have any left, we will open up sales to the general public, and we are confident they will sell quickly. This will be your last opportunity to purchase plots from us, because we do not expect to ever make this benefit available again in Southern California.

Please contact our office at 310.552.2007 for further details.
