The Sterling Home Depot is looking for volunteers to help with the restoration of Sunset Memorial Gardens on Saturday, May 3 at 8am. The Sterling Home Depot is using money from their own budget to help bring Sunset Memorial Gardens back to its former glory. The cemetery has fallen into disarray and they are assisting with raising grave markers back to ground-level, cleaning them up, and raising those of our fallen veterans. The cemetery is 2 miles North of Sterling. Taking Sidney Ave (CR41) North is the easiest route.
