Most folks around here just refer to it as “Mission Gardens”. It was established in 1908 on West 7<sup>th</sup> Street, Clovis, New Mexico on the north side of the road. </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">This is a beautiful well groomed cemetery especially considering that, at times, there are 75 mph winds, dust storms, and tumbleweeds to contend with. There is at the moment no signage but just ask a local and they will be glad to direct you to the cemetery. Most of them will tell you just look for the Air Force Plane in the Middle of the Road on the right and you have gone too far, back up ½ a block and look to your right for the tiny white chapel and you’ve found it. The “Clovis” Mausoleum is here also - in the back on the left hand side.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"> </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">Select information listed above from the following website.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&GRid=65301462&CRid=38232&</p>
