The Forest Hill Cemetery Association and the Eagle Lake Cemetery Association would like to extend a hearty thank you to the board members of the Farmers Co-op Store Company of Cromwell for their generous monetary gift. These board members have diligently searched for over five years for Co-op members and their families to rightfully distribute remaining funds. Many of the original pioneers of the area have been laid to rest at Forest Hill or Eagle Lake, so this donation will be used to take care of them.
