Book Description
The former old ?solitude? farm has rolling hills and mountain views. The nearly 50 acres, nestled between the Ghent, Wasena, and Raleigh Court neighborhoods, are as beautiful today as they were 100 years ago when three prominent Roanoke businessmen created a ?modern burial park,? and more importantly a lasting business that still serves its community. From its initial conception, Evergreen Burial Park has been, and is today, a special place, populated by many exceptional people who had an enormous impact on the place we call home.Evergreen: A Century of Service is a story about Roanoke and the people who created our local, regional, national, and yes, even world history. It is a story that spans more than 100 years when you consider the lifespans of the history makers. So as you read this book and peruse the antique photographic images, we hope that you will find it to be a tribute to the history of Evergreen Burial Park and that of Roanoke, Virginia. And a tribute to the prominent business owners, the men who founded Evergreen Development Company, the men and women who grew the business, and in the process, shaped Roanoke as we know it today.
