Just Getting Started

Hello to All - This blog has been created for all of those interested in the preservation of the Cemetery at Saratoga Springs, in McDonald County, Missouri. A meeting was called in July 2011 for all parties interested. The decision was made to formally establish a nonprofit organization to preserve the final resting place of our loved ones.... and even for some of us in the future. You are most welcome to attend our meetings and certainly, your financial donations for upkeep and preservation are appreciated. - Raylene
