I was asked to be the chairman of the committee to restore the Spanish Fork Pioneer Cemetery. It is now a beautiful and sacred place to visit. |
This is the beautiful life-size statue of a pioneer family in the cemetery made possible by donations to the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. |
Before we restored the cemetery it was a weed patch. This is the old monument erected in the 1940's. I'm showing where the old grave markers were used like bricks. |

I helped write the words on the monument that appears side by side with the old one at the cemetery. |
This is a picture of the old monument with the old fence around it. |
This is the old monument with only a few of the names of those buried here. |
