There are two cemeteries within the city limits of Smithville, OK - Smithville Cemetery and "Old Smithville Cemetery". They are adjacent to each other on Hwy 4, about a quarter mile east of Smithville's Elementary School. Clean-up is done the Friday and Saturday prior to Decoration. During clean-up, the family members of those buried in the cemetery, as well as other community members, remove old
flowers from the graves and generally clean up the cemeteries. There is a Cemetery Committee that (1) oversees the ongoing maintenance (e.g. mowing) of the cemetery throughout the year; (2) manages donations for cemetery upkeep; (3) are the points of contact related to burial arrangements; (4) are the points of contact for the purchase of burial plots. Maintenance of the cemeteries requires money - and the necessary funds are provided through donations of family members of those buried there and community members. Donations can be made to committee members at any time. They will be present during Decoration and clean-up days. Committee Members are:
Tina Hudson (479) 234-8080
Karla Hopper Falls (479) 216-2592
