REMINDER:
As per our cemetery bi-laws… all item on the ground around the stones have to be removed within the 2 weeks following Memorial Day.. this includes all flowers (plastic or otherwise), solor lights, flags, shepherd hooks.

The cemetery will remove any of these items (not already removed) on Saturday- June 14th. This is to allow our mowing crews to be able to weed-eat up to the monuments - to keep our cemetery looking good.

Thank you for your continued support.

Several weeks ago, the cemetery was donated three brass veteran emblems for use in cemeteries - 1 basic veteran emblem and 2 honoring WWI veterans.

Willard Gardner of Gardner Welding , LLC near Russellville volunteered the time, talent and material to affix stakes to the emblems. Yesterday, we placed the basic veteran emblem by the grave of Johnny Campbell in Enloe Cemetery. Johnny was the only Russellville resident to be killed in Vietnam.

Also in Enloe Cemetery, we placed one of the WWI emblems at the grave of Earl Remley, a young soldier killed in the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. The other emblem was placed at the gravesite of Dr. L. David Enloe, who served with a surgical hospital in France during WWI. His younger brother, Roscoe Enloe, was killed in the war and is the namesake for American Legion Post 5 in Jefferson City.

Thank you to community-minded individuals such as Willard who have supported us in honoring veterans at Enloe Cemetery.

If you wish to help us pay tribute to veterans at Enloe Cemetery, you can meet us at the pavilion in the cemetery at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 22, 2025. We will be placing flags at the graves of the nearly 360 heroes buried there in preparation for Memorial Day.

God bless 🇺🇸!

Update - Saturday May 17, 2025

This week (at Enloe Cemetery) we had the cracks filled & the asphalt sealed on our roadways.
The above prevented traveling on the roads - this past week.

However, as of this morning 5-17-25 - the cemetery is open - to normal traffic.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused this past week.

Pictured are E. Wesley Enloe, left, and Lyman Enloe Sr.

Lyman and Wesley were first cousins. It's interesting that Lyman, who was originally from the Olean area, is pictured with a guitar because even though a master musician, he became recognized as a fiddle aficionado and was featured on several professional recordings. When he was a young man, his father, Elijah, played the fiddle on radio programs broadcast from Jefferson City and Lyman backed him up on rhythm guitar.

Lyman was a 1995 recipient of the National Heritage Fellowship Award - a prestigious award presented to the nation's folk and traditional music artists - and a member of the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass. He on several occasions noted that he was unable to read music and learned to play the fiddle by picking it up and trying.

Like many musicians of his era, Lyman couldn't sustain himself on music alone and worked as a self-employed painter in the Kansas City area to support his family. In 1955, he suffered great personal tragedy when his son, Charles Wayne Enloe, was killed in the crash of a military transport plane in Hawaii while serving in the U.S. Navy.

Lyman reached 91 years of age and, following his death in 1997, was interred in Enloe Cemetery near Russellville.
