American Grave Groomers
Conducted a free class to show how to restore old grave markers. It was a fun and educational event.
With the help of the Cedar Cliff Chapter of Daughters of the Revolution, we had a number of volunteers to work on restoring numerous grave markers that date back to the Revolutionary War to a respectful condition for those who fought for our freedom.
Please watch the presentation below to see pictures of the work done.
Between this summer and last the Board of Trustees has approved approximately $18,000 to go towards restoring the entrance and old headstones of Stevenson Cemetery. Ron Nocella (pictured above) from American Grave Groomers has been doing a phenomenal job restoring the cemetery to its former glory. As we work alongside the Daughters of the American Revolution to get a $5,000 grant to help restore these Grave Markers.
