What do you do when a cemetery building gets spruced up inside and out?

You party, even while facing an incoming nor’easter!

On Monday, volunteers and others gathered to celebrate the interior renovation of Zion Hill Cemetery’s caretaker’s cottage, along with the more publicly visible exterior repainting.

If you had not seen what the building at Ward and Zion looked like before, the photo below, taken in May, clues you into the condition.
