History and Heritage

Hopewell Cemetery Story

Hopewell Cemetery is a community cemetery established in 1854 which is a ~4-acre active community cemetery with over 800+ gravesites including 100+ Veterans from various wars and military services; in 1907, the original Hopewell Community became known as Tyrone with the arrival of the railroad (Town of Tyrone established in 1911).

​

May 2023 Hopewell Cemetery property ownership transferred from Hopewell United Methodist Church to Hopewell Cemetery, Inc.

​

Hopewell Cemetery, Inc is a nonprofit tax-exempt organization under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3) public organization which consists of outstanding dedicated volunteers including our volunteer board of director members.

 

Our vision/mission is to build a partnership between the cemetery and community for the Hopewell Cemetery upkeep, maintenance, perpetual care, preservation, and operations.

We Believe...

A cemetery is a history of people,

a perpetual record of yesterday,

and a sanctuary of peace and quiet today.

A cemetery exists because

every life is worthliving and remembering always.
