Preservation of Our Ancestors, Inc hasn't added a story.
We are Preservation of Our Ancestors. In 2015 we initiated a project to clean up the Wharton Hispanic Cemetery located in Wharton, Texas, which is the final resting place of our grandparents and many other relatives. The cemetery was established in 1925 as part of the Wharton City Cemetery across the street. At some point through the years, the City of Wharton stopped the lawn care for our area and our relatives began the process of taking care of it. As of today, the majority of those relatives are no longer living and we the children and grandchildren of the buried have taken on the responsibility. After 3 1/2 years, our first major goal was met. We replaced the fence that once enclosed the cemetery after it was removed due to the construction of the retail store behind it.
Preservation of Our Ancestors consists of a dedicated group of individuals who are getting up in age and mostly live out of town. We need to replenish our funds to continue the lawn care and beautification of the land with the assistance of local residents.
We are asking you to contribute from your heart as we have been doing all along. No donation is too small. All are tax deductible and a receipt will be provided. Please share with your friends and relatives to get the word out.
Thank you for your support!
