For every flower that I place on your grave, I think of all those things you did to make my life as beautiful and fragrant as a bed of flowers.

Thank you to everyone for standing up and fighting to ensure our historic Violet Cemetery is being mowed and maintained.

Please help us out by inviting your family and friends to like this page. It takes a village.

Many of us have family members and friends that are buried in Violet Cemetery and they deserve to have their final resting place be taken care of and maintained. Help us spread the word.

From Dickie Kennemore:

The Violet Cemetery has not been mowed this year and is in much need of maintenance. Don Wilson has tried to mow it, but it is to big a job for one person. I am soliciting donations to hire a professional to mow, w**d eat, and spray. I have someone who will clean it and maintain it for the remainder of the year, which I estimate to cost about $ 5000. We need to get this done because when it was listed on the Historic Registry, through the efforts of the late Gene Robinson, the city agreed to maintain it. It, also, needs to be done to keep the area looking neat and to honor our forefathers. Please help in any amount. Make check payable to Violet Cemetery Fund, and mail to Violet Cemetery Fund, c/o Dickie Kennemore, P.O. Box 37, Osceola, Ark., 72370.
