We are the Community

The Ash Cemetery in Sandy Spring, MD, is not just a plot of land; it is a sacred guardian of our history, preserving the memories and legacies of countless families who have found eternal rest within its embrace. This hallowed ground has served our community for generations, a serene testament to our roots and the love that binds us to our ancestors. Now, some new community members seek to erase this vital connection, threatening to destroy a site that holds the stories and spirits of our loved ones.

We cannot stand idle while the very essence of our community is jeopardized. The souls resting within Ash Cemetery deserve our respect and protection. This land embodies the struggles, triumphs, and lasting bonds of those who came before us. To advocate for its protection is to honor our past and assert our right to preserve the integrity of our history for future generations. The proposal to claim this space for development is a direct affront to the memories that deserve reverence, not erasure.

Join us in standing firm against this threat. Sign our petition to protect Ash Cemetery and ensure it remains a sanctuary for remembrance and reflection. Together, we can make our voices heard; we can shout that our memories and our heritage will not be trampled by those who disregard the deep significance of this sacred place. It’s time to rally as a community, to safeguard our history, and to protect what is rightfully ours. Let us defend Ash Cemetery and honor the lives that shaped our story.
