March 29 – 30

Ancestor worship is a Chinese tradition that goes back thousands of years.  “Ching Ming" or “Remembrance of Ancestors Day” is therefore a key holiday in the Chinese calendar. On this weekend prior to the actual Ching Ming day of April 4, you may view hundreds of families visiting the cemetery to sweep/clean their ancestors’ graves and repaint the inscriptions on the headstones to show their respect.  The families will bring food offerings too.

Mountain View Cemetery will be serving refreshments to families on March 29 – 30. Family Service consultants will be available to discuss our new burial plots.
