As mentioned earlier this spring St.Margarets Cemetery is looking for an on island backhoe operator who is capable of digging graves for the burial of human remains. Although we have access to off island operators it would be more efficient cost wise and time wise to have someone on Thetis do this job.
Fortunately the necessity for this work does not happen often. St.Margarets has had two such burials in the last year after a period of eight years with none.
The machine must be able to dig a 4 ft by 8 ft by 6 ft deep grave and at the same time be of a size which the cemetery can accommodate.
If you think this might be something you are interested in doing please contact Suzanne 250-246-9965.
