Here's a reminder to make your donation to the Old Center Cemetery Association. Send your check or money order to Shonda Russell, Treasurer, 154 CR 4282, Tenaha, TX 75974.

Please indicate with a note if you want the annual program to specify that your donation is in honor or in memory of specific loved ones. Mrs. Russell does a wonderful job of keeping up with memorial donations.

Attendance was low at the 2024 May Working, the annual event that has supported the cemetery for years. Cemetery Association officers work as volunteers to ensure the maintenance and integrity of the Old Center Cemetery. As we remember the old saying "Gone but not forgotten," let's all do our part to keep the cemetery maintained.

The May Working is scheduled for Saturday, May 4. Business meeting will begin at 11 a.m. with bring-your-own picnic lunch starting at noon.
The May Working is held each year on the first Saturday in May as a fundraising event to help with maintenance costs for the Old Center Cemetery.
Please remember to label flowers somewhere in the arrangements with the name of your deceased loved ones. This will help cemetery caregivers be able to replace the arrangements onto the right monuments if windy weather causes them to blow away.
Thanks to all for supporting the historic Old Center Cemetery with your financial donations. Our loved ones are gone, but not forgotten.
