Greenwood Cemetery

Greenwood Cemetery in York, Nebraska, has been an active burial ground since 1882, featuring over 11,000 gravesites, including numerous veterans from various American conflicts. The cemetery also houses a memorial to the 9/11 tragedy, incorporating a piece of the North Tower of the World Trade Center, and hosts annual Memorial Day ceremonies to honor the veterans interred there.

As a nonprofit organization, Greenwood Cemetery relies on plot sales and grave openings for its operations and has recently completed a significant fundraising campaign to enhance its facilities. Improvements include the construction of a new caretaker's house, leveling of headstones, and ongoing tree maintenance, all aimed at preserving the cemetery's beauty for families and the community.
