Despite spending many years in the Keizer area, I never knew about Claggett Cemetery. It hides behind a large residential area, seems well maintained, and is small enough to look like a big backyard / little park that just so happens to have some tombstones in it.
Had it not been for Yelp and the magic of Google Street View, I'm not sure if anyone would find this place with ease. Many of the tombstones are not raised, and there doesn't seem to be any office / meeting area where staff would be. Save for a small sign on a gate, and it might not seem obvious this is a cemetery.
We laid one of my closest relatives to rest here. The staff that was present was helpful in conducting the ceremony and gave my family and I a chance to grieve our loss peacefully and with grace. The tranquility here seems ideal for his final resting place.
