Bonham, Texas -- Willow Wild Cemetery will not be serving food this weekend at the Bonham Trades Days as previously noted. Instead, Board Members will be there with several items that have been donated for auction by local businesses to our fundraising campaign for the upkeep of the cemetery.

Drop by the stall across from the flag pole, buy your chance from one of these great items!

The quality of maintenance has improved dramatically this year, and the costs associated with this level of care continue to increase. Donations are the key to our success in making this historic and beautiful cemetery a worthy resting place for our loved ones, a serene place for families to visit, and a jewel to our community. Good
food, good company – good cause!

Another note: please bear with us through the rainy season. We try to finish the mowing in two to three days to maintain its uniform look. The April showers and May flowers that grace us during the rainy season bring their own set of challenges! Thanks to our excellent maintenance crew, we are able to stay on top of it most of the time. When it’s standing in water, though, all we can do is be grateful for the rain!
