We were lucky to get our water trailer full on June 9 and wouldn’t you know it has rained almost every day since filling up. We believe that the cemetery received 50+ mm of rain since then. It’s looking good on the south flower bed as the irises and lillies are out in bloom.

We wanted to thank Terry and crew with B &T Fencing for fixing our people gate and our vehicle gate. They are so easy to open now and don’t drag on the ground. An excellent job done quickly. Thanks again!

Our storage seacan received a great painting by Robert Murray on September 30, 2021. Chuck Neher asked Robert to come up with a design for it after giving him some ideas and touring the area. Robert did such a fantastic mural on all 4 sides, all in a day.

The Cemetery had its first "Green" burial on Wednesday. The casket was lowered by attendees of the grave side service. It went very well considering it was the first "Green" burial for the funeral home as well.

Thanks to the ongoing research by John Matthews, we now have replacement markers for all the graves in the historical section of the graveyard. His research concluded that Claude Latimer's and William Latimer's headstones had been damaged over the years so new ones were made and that Carson Latimer, Sarah Sweetham and Elisha Roswell's headstones were missing or never had one placed at the Cemetery. Thanks to the work of Glen Gogol, Chuck Neher, John Matthews and Harold Lake September 11, 2020 there are 5 new replacement markers (headstones) in place.
