The cemetery road and new entrance is finished and the fence has been replaced. Look for a few more upgrades in the coming weeks. Thank you to Thomas & Bridget Pavlich and the crew from Catholic Life 200 along with the girl scouts for all their hard work in cleaning and clearing at the cemetery this past Saturday. A big thank you also to Leonard Wiatrek and John Ahr for their assistance with maintenance at the cemetery throughout the year.
