I was here with the Cpl Richard Scott Haymes Marine Corps League Honor Guard, we performed military honors at a funeral for a man from Massachusetts who's family is buried in this cemetery. He is now with his parent and grandparents.

I took the opportunity to photo the location. The church inside has most of the priest's vestments, no cassocks for the servers though.
Found a looseleaf note book where in it was noted a mass was said in Feb. of 2015, last service held here. The earliest service listed in the note book was 1994. It was, and is, on the organ in the back of the church. But periodically a few times a year mass and/or benediction and sometimes the Stations of the Cross are held in this old mission church.

There are 66, now 67, souls in this cemetery.
