A cemetery deed is a legal document. It is a deed for the plot or plots you purchased.

Former Texas Governor Mark Wells White does have a plot at the Texas State Cemetery in Austin, but hasn't been assigned a plot yet for some reason.
In the past, people called that area a graveyard. Today, it is more common to call the burial area a cemetery. One piece of a cemetery is a grave or a grave plot, meaning a plot of ground with a set size that is sold as a plot for burial purposes. A person or family can buy one or more plots in a cemetery. Most people who buy 2 or more plots buy them side by side as a family plot.
Thomas Edison was buried in the family plot at Rosedale Cemetery in West Orange, New Jersey.
The responsibility will depend on how the policy is written, and the cemetery rules. Carefully read over the policy as well as the paperwork for the plot ownership to get a better feel of how the paperwork was written.

See Oak Park Cemtery v. Donaldson, 148 S.W.2d 994 (Tex.Civ.App.-Galveston 1940, writ dismissed). Plots are a right of burial, akin to an easement, license, or privilege.Texas Health & Safety Code §711.039 describes the requirements for properly transferring plots: "Unless a plot owner who has the exclusive right of sepulture in a plot and who is interred in that plot has made a specific disposition of the plot by express reference to the plot in the owner's will or by written declaration filed and recorded in the office of the cemetery organization: … the owner's children, in order of need, may be interred in any remaining graves, niches, or crypts of the plot without the consent of a person claiming an interest in the plot."Richard Poulosrs_poulos@yahoo.com
The answer depends on what variables the plot shows.
In North America, a cemetery burial is forever, unless the cemetery is relocated. Then all the burials are moved to the new location, with their markers. In much of Europe, a modern cemetery burial is for a period of 50 years; then the cemetery plot can be resold and used again. This does not apply to Jewish cemetery burials. For religious reasons, Jewish cemetery plots are used only once and the burial is forever.
