Cemeteries

About the Cemeteries
The City owns and maintains Evergreen and Maple Ridge cemeteries, both of which have interments dating back to the early 1800s. Many veterans, including those who served our country during the Civil War, have found their final resting place in these historic grounds.

Evergreen Cemetery holds two special events, an Easter Sunday sunrise service and a Memorial Day wreath placing. Workers also place an American flag at the grave sites of all Veterans just prior to Memorial day.
