Cemetery Services
Despite more than 33,000 burials over more than a hundred years, Vale Cemetery continues to provide a full range of affordable cremation and burial services to this day.
Historic Preservation isn’t just about buildings, and preservation success stories don’t happen overnight. They also don’t happen in silos. The Vale Cemetery Association’s efforts to revive and restore the African American Ancestral Burying Ground were successful because of countless volunteer hours, lots of research, community input, and grassroots support.
