​​Preserving Legacies

"Show me your cemetery and I will tell you what I think of your people."​   -Benjamin Franklin

Friends of Fairview is a volunteer run non-profit organization, in New Albany, IN, dedicated to preserving our beloved Fairview Cemetery and to keeping its stories alive.  

FOF uses the money raised to fund projects to benefit the cemetery, including the care and repair of headstones and monuments. 

Everybody has a story to tell and Fairview Cemetery is filled with them.  Stories of hopes, dreams, sorrows, and most of all, love.
​​
​It's our privilege to help families rediscover those stories.

​One way we do this is through our annual Stories Behind the Stones event every September.  

We invite you to learn more about Friends of Fairview and the many ways you can interact with us and our vision.  And, we hope to see you at our next Stories Behind the Stones event!
