Overview

Mission

To operate as a cemetery under IRS code section 501(c)(13) withperpetual care and upkeep of the premises.

What it reported doing in 2025

1)we have provided our services as a cost saving alternative to our customers. (if you compare costs to purchase plots and intern individual remains, we are one of the least costly cemeteries in the area). 2)we have reduced costs by negotiating care & upkeep programs with our outside vendors. (lawn care and maintenance). 3)we have made reliabilty and flexibility improvements by contracting for burial expenditures. (opening and closing of grave sites. This used to be done all in-house with equipment and personnel).

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
