Blue Ridge Cemetery

Reminder: Blue Ridge Cemetery will host our annual meeting on Sunday, May 5th at 3:00 PM at the cemetery tabernacle. In the event of inclement weather, we will move to First Baptist Church.

The cemetery is an independent entity and all maintenance, repairs, updates are paid for through donated funds, materials, labor, time. We are still working to repair damage from a tornado in the recent past. Gates at both entrances were destroyed, many trees were lost, the tabernacle sustained much damage, markers were displaced. Thanks to all who donated goods, services and hours of hard work in making repairs and cleaning the grounds.

We have plans to rebuild entrances, with an arch denoting Blue Ridge Cemetery. This is an expensive project and your financial donation can be designated specifically toward its completion. It is also tax deductible.

Donations are dwindling in recent years and costs continue to rise. Ongoing expenses include mowing, insurance, etc…

Please consider attending the annual meeting, offering suggestions for improvements, fundraisers, increasing community participation & raising awareness.

There will be individuals available to accept your donation at the cemetery from 9 AM to 3 PM on Saturday and Sunday, May 4th.

If you are unable to stop by in person, please mail your donation to:

Blue Ridge Cemetery
P.O. Box 122
Blue Ridge, TX 75424

Thank you!

Memorial Day 2022!
