Shawn Lyman is reaching out to families who have ancestors buried in Evergreen Cemetery who are willing to help clean up and maintain the cemetery. The cemetery is an historic African-American cemetery that is overgrown with greenery and has suffered vandalism. He would like to insure that those resting there receive the respect that they deserve. Contact him if you would like to help with this effort.
