We have a great Morningside Cemetery Committee that are constantly working to clean and improving the cemetery grounds. John McDonald has been overseeing our grass cutting crew, Issac McKinney and Marvin Sutton. John also stays busy spraying and w**d eating grass around graves, inside curbing, and along the perimeter fence line. When possible, John and his crew trims the grass before a funeral in honor of the one that has passed.

The Elaeagnus blind planted along Priscilla Club is looking good and growing healthy. Mark Harden is still repairing headstones periodically. Several nuisance trees have been removed, all the old storm damaged trees and underbrush have been removed. Several recent photos have been uploaded for your viewing.

Please keep you donations coming as this is an ongoing upkeep year around. Thank You to our awesome committee!

It has been brought to my attention that flowers were put on a grave yesterday afternoon and they were gone this morning. Please ride through the cemetery and report anything that looks out of the ordinary!!!

Since Morningside is not a perpetual care cemetery and the city is limited in funding, grave site owners or their descendants are responsible for maintaining their plots and the cemetery. Please help with your donation to maintain and improve the integrity and beauty of the cemetery. In addition, a memorial gift to the Morningside Cemetery would be a meaningful way to honor a deceased family member or friend. Thank you for your support!!! Mail contributions to:

FRIENDS OF MORNINGSIDE CEMETERY, P. O. BOX 156, ROCHELLE, GA. 31079
