    Cemetery Celebrities

    Welcome to our first quarterly edition of our Cemetery Celebrities page. As one of the oldest documented cemeteries in the West, Mountain View Cemetery has countless well-known figures located here. In honor of our famous residents we have decided to feature one person of interest, each quarter, and share some of our cemetery's rich history with you. You will find our first honoree listed under the Activities and Events tab.

  • Community Service Day

    On December 9, 2011 Springwater Environmental Science School devoted their time to a Community Service Day at Mountain View Cemetery. Several students and their parents came to Mt. View Cemetery to spread mulch on a very cold December morning. Kate, Lucy, Liam, Grace and Patience assisted by parent volunteers Phil, Karen and Rebecca worked very hard to help cemetery personnel. The time and patronage is very much appreciated by the Mt. View Cemetery staff. Thank you, Springwater Environmental Science School and volunteer staff.
