We welcome your participation and support as we attempt to restore and preserve Memory Lawn Cemetery and honor our departed in the way they deserve to be honored.
The Rescue Memory Lawn Cemetery Alliance was formed on Tuesday, September 29, 2009, by over 180 individuals concerned with the lack of perpetual care and possible abuse of the deceased and their bereaved families.
The Alliance needs your help!
While at the Chaves County Clerk's office recently, we were shown a web site that has a list of burials or purchased plots at Memory Lawn Cemetery. After going over the list - I noticed that it is missing quite a lot. My family has over 30 burials at the cemetery and only 4 show up on the list. At the hearing yesterday, Drake stated that there are only about 1,000 grave sites that are "perpetual care." I believe that number is seriously understated. This list on the internet can help prove a more accurate number IF we can get it updated AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
