Clean, Reclaim, Proclaim!

Mount Lawn Cemetery has served the community since its establishment, becoming a resting place for generations and a symbol of remembrance and respect. Illegal trash dumping is a threat along the boundaries of the grounds. Clean-Up Days allow citizens to take action. With your support, we can honor those who came before us and make the cemetery a peaceful and respectful place.

You can support by donating cleaning supplies!

Established over a century ago, October 2nd 2025 marked the 100th anniversary of Mount Lawn Cemetery’s first burial, and since that time Mount Lawn has been a resting place for generations of families.

Evelyn McFall Street, who lived in Darby Township, was just 21 years old when she passed away from a tragic illness. Evelyn’s headstone notes that she is the first interment. If you visit you can leave her flowers.

Today Mount Lawn’s grounds are home to a diverse array of notable figures, reflecting the community’s history. The cemetery is a peaceful site for remembrance and reflection. And our community volunteers are needed to help us keep it clean and safe for present day and future generations to come.
