Unfortunately, there are no burial plots available for purchase in the Centerville Cemetery. Centerville City is willing to re-purchase unused burial plots from individuals who do not plan to use their plots. Centerville City will then sell these plots to people who are on the waiting list. If you are interested in getting on the waiting list, contact 801-677-6436.
Cemetery
Our cemetery is known as one of the most well-kept and beautiful in the valley; our Parks Department exceeds necessity in their care of the cemetery and their reverence for our loved ones buried there. The Centerville City Cemetery has been in use since the Mormon pioneers first settled the area in 1847, although the first recorded burial was in 1851. In the early days, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints owned and operated the cemetery, but ownership was eventually transferred to the city of Centerville. The most notable "resident" of the cemetery is B. H. Roberts, a well-known Latter-day Saint Historian.
