History & Staff

Grace Memorial Gardens and Funeral Home was founded in 1970 by Melvin Scherer, a retired Air Force colonel, who invested in real estate in the early 1960s. As a community resident who attended many services at Hudson Cemetery, he recognized the need for a new cemetery for the community.

At Grace Memorial, the main goal was to have a respectful, peaceful place to honor loved ones – one that would always be maintained. This was best accomplished in the 1970s by creating sections that were specific to a faith or organization. These sections are still available for flat memorials. In the 1980s, mausoleum entombment became a prominent request. Today, the cemetery features five mausoleum complexes.

Honestly speaking through a very hard time with loosing my Father the staff at Grace Memorial went way above and beyond to make our family feel comfortable and every detail completed. I would recommend them to anyone and feel assured your loved one and your wishes will be taken care of completely with honor and respect! Thank you all!

I wanted to thank you for all you did to make a very difficult situation into a celebration of life for our family. The golf cart was so much a part of him. You also found the one that he chose! Thank you again,
