UPDATE:

The first-ever meeting of the San Jose Montopolis Cemetery Association will meet
THIS Saturday March 12.

The basic agenda items to be discussed will be procedural issues, reviewing priorities and orienting ourselves to address the responsibilities we have undertaken.

Because of the need to organize the internal affairs of the board first, we will open future meetings up to the community.
Stay tuned for the invitation and we hope you will join us then.
