Cemetery Project
The Price-Tyler Cemetery is a Historic Landmark in the heart of the Shawnee Historical District. It contains multiple 19th century headstones that we work to preserve and maintain. Rhonda Dusatko, a long time board member and volunteer, discovered buried headstones and excavated them so that we could reset them in a preservational mortar. Special thanks to Steve Plutte from the Park County Cemetery Board.
