Pat and Sarto met with Paul Gillis at the cemetery. Paul Gillis wanted to donate his cemetery plots, Lot 3, 9-10 in Section VII (7) to the Town, since he plans on being buried in the Veteran’s cemetery. He was told he would have to submit “an Article to be given to the Town Clerk”.

Paul Gillis gave the following to the Town Clerk:
An Article:
To see if the Town will vote to allow the Cemetery Commission to accept the donation of 2 (2) plots of land identified as: Section VII, Lot 3, Plots 9 & 10, Line 1, Northwest side of Holland Cemetery.
Internment in these plots will be subject to the following conditions:
- that the Cemetery Commission has determined that the cremated remains are of an indigent veteran with a reasonable connection to the Town of Holland;
- only flat memorial stones, as provided by the Veterans Administration, be allowed;
- And that the Town of Holland shall not be liable for any cost related to the internment.
Of special note: Donald Bopp has been hired by the Town to do the monument footings to be paid out of the Revolving Fund.
