Recently, Rev. Doug Jones and the congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church on East Church Street made plans to install a columbarium in their memorial garden. The walkways and gardens are nestled behind an old brick wall running along Maxwell Avenue and the historic Hahn Building, facing Church Street.
