• land use and infrastructure master planning
• land management and site redevelopment strategies
• detailed site planning and landscape design
• agency approval services

 In his work, he has established an expertise in cemetery planning for private, public, and Catholic cemeteries throughout the United States, Canada and Central America. The specialized cemetery planning services that Jack provides are:

• long-range land use planning for cemetery development
  
• site development capacity assessments and inventory projections
  
• phasing strategies for inventory and budget management
  
• infill designs for difficult and remnant land areas
  
• landscape restoration and image enhancement design
  
• site and facility design guidelines
  
• water management and environmental protection planning
  
• signage and way-finding systems planning
  
• section, columbarium, and feature design
  

Jack is skilled at conducting interactive, consensus-building planning sessions with the cemetery’s management, marketing, and operations personnel. This approach results in design solutions that integrate the financial, operational, and aesthetic goals that are unique to your cemetery into a coordinated strategy for physical growth and improvement. He is also skilled at assisting cemeteries through the agency approval processes in timely and cost effective ways.
 
Jack has always worked closely with environmentalists, architects and civil engineers to ensure careful coordination between site, facility, and infrastructure solutions. He brings a commitment to cooperative team interaction and communication in the planning process.

As a recognized expert in cemetery planning, Jack has spoken at state and national cemetery conferences on the issues and processes of successful cemetery master planning. He was invited by the Chinese Ministry of Civil Affairs to speak on the practices and philosophies of American cemetery planning at China’s 1st Funeral Arts Exhibition in Beijing. Jack is an instructor at the ICCFA University at the University of Memphis in the College of Land Management and the College of Administration ; and at the Catholic Cemetery Conference University at Notre Dame in the School of School of Land Management.

Jack’s approach to cemetery planning is distinguished by the experience, skill, and design creativity with which he integrates physical development strategies with your unique land resources, and your cemetery’s specific operational needs, marketing goals, and business strategies.
