Also known as Saint Patrick's Catholic Cemetery, this cemetery still serves the community of Sparta. Since the first records burial in 1858, this site has seen over 1,450 more burials. Local priests have a special place located under an amazing scene of Jesus at the crucifixion with the women who were present. This piece of art was dedicated to Father Flock who is buried with the other priests at the foot of this area. The cemetery still has room to grow as two additional large plots are prepared to serve those who pass on in the future.
