Cemetery Needs Your Help
A big thank you to those who have already contributed!
Cooper Landing Cemetery has been overwhelmed by fallen and dead spruce trees, making it difficult—and in some areas, unsafe—for visitors to access their loved ones’ resting places. We are seeking donations to help fund a crew for a day or two of cleanup in August, so the grounds can be restored and safely visited.
If you have loved ones interred at the cemetery or have a reserved plot, please consider contributing to this important effort. Your support will go directly toward preserving the dignity and accessibility of this cherished space.
If you would like to donate to the cause, please contact Tommy at 907-598-8061 for information on how you can make a tax-deductible donation. Every contribution helps.
