This cemetery is a very old one and is in bad need of repair. It won't be long until a lot of the stones here will be completely gone. Many stones are broken and on the ground. Some are even broken in several pieces. There are some that are off the base mounting and could be repaired.

The caretaker told me that Chitwood sure could use some help. They need to repair some old stones and need money to help repair stones. There are a few that have fallen and that are off the base mounting. Donations would be appreciated.
