In Loving Memory

In Loving Memory Campaign

In 1999, the Board of Directors for Kenly Cemetery, Inc. voted to update cemetery care records with names and addresses of plot owners and/or their families and to ask for special contributions.  The first newsletter was mailed informing recipients of the cemetery’s need for funds.  The option was given to contribute to the permanent fund from which only interest could be drawn or to the general fund which could be used 100% for the upkeep of the cemetery.  Contributions could be made to either fund as a memorial.  This fundraising became the “In Loving Memory” Campaign led by Grethel M. Boyette who was assisted by Hazel Barnes, Don Boyette, and other Board Members.  Grethel Boyette created A “In Loving Memory Book” and placed it at Coley Funeral Home containing the names of the donors and who the donation was made in memory of.   With the help of Thomas Jackson,  this web site was created  and the  book was discontinued with memorals listed on line. 

The "In Loving Memory" campaign is still being continued today  by current board members. .
