Cedar Hill Cemetery board member John Hart walks through the cemetery, where he’s spent a lot of time since joining the board as a volunteer last year. Hart has spent his own free time cleaning out ditches, trying to fix irrigation problems and performing cemetery maintenance due to a backlog of issues. He keeps his own personal tractor and other equipment at the cemetery to perform this work, as well as renting a backhoe. “Who else is going to do it?” he said.
