A Special Thank You

This Memorial Day, the Mineral Cemetery was a place of quiet beauty and heartfelt remembrance — and that’s thanks in large part to some very special people.

We want to extend our deepest thanks to Richard Smith for the beautiful landscaping work. The grounds looked absolutely stunning, and his care and dedication are deeply appreciated.

We also want to recognize the Kevin Gronzo family, who graciously placed flags at the graves of our veterans. Their act of service reminds us all of the true meaning of and ensures our local are honored with dignity and respect.

From all of us at the , thank you for helping us , support our , and preserve the peace of this sacred place.

On this Memorial Day I want to remember those who died for this Country. For our community we have close to 95 people who have served our country, and have been laid to rest in our Mineral Cemetery.

This year our planned Spring cleanup did not happen, due to weather and a conflict in scheduling. I want to apologize to those families that may have a family member laid to rest in our Cemetery and the grass was not trimmed around their family member’s grave marker. We will work on those that haven’t been trimmed.

I want to thank those who did help with the cleanup of the cemetery. Some families cleaned their family’s grave markers and to the the person who mowed the grass. Also a thank you to Stan for removing and cleanup where a few large branches fell over the Winter.

Unfortunately during the trimming around the grave markers I discovered more than a dozen shotgun shells around a headstone. Initially the shells weren’t seen until the w**d eater hit one and it went flying hitting my legs. I don’t know why they were there, but leaving things around the headstones or on the grave is very dangerous. Also there are a few glass containers that will be removed this coming weekend. I am also reminding those families who put out plastic flowers that only fresh flowers are to be placed during the mowing season. Plastic flowers are only allowed during the Fall and Winter months. This policy is posted at the Cemetery. The plastic flowers will be removed and placed in the shed at the back of the cemetery which is unlocked if families would like to retrieve their flowers.

Thank you for your help cleaning up our cemetery!
