After a mid-20th century period of inactivity, the association was reactivated in 1985, and its members continue to actively maintain the cemetery. The approximately 150 grave markers on the site reflect evolving tastes in funerary art as a well as the wide-ranging socioeconomic status of those buried there. In spite of recent population growth in the area, the cemetery’s rural character remains intact.
