Arledge Ridge Cemetery

My grandfather, grandmother, my mother, father, brother, his son. I have just placed a grave marker for myself when god calls me home. I have a lot of family at rest In this cemetery. The cemetery association takes great care of the cemetery. My dad side of the family going back to the late 1800’s. At rest in this cemetery. I placed a red oak tree at the feet of my dad. In 14 years it has grown to about 40 feet tall. I hope it lives 1000 years.

Beautiful historic Fannin county cemetery. Many of my husbands family members are interred here. It is well maintained and cared for. The cemetery association holds a memorial service and business meeting once a year on the first Sunday in June. New members/families are always welcome. One key factor in deciding on a final resting place should include if there is an association or an endowed trust that is maintained for continued care and upkeep. Most people do not think about this aspect when choosing a lot, but it should be included in the final decision. This is one of the best of historic cemeteries in the north Texas area and will remain that way because of the founding members innovative thoughts about its future.
