Welcome to the Mulkey

Located on a hilltop in west Eugene, the peaceful Mulkey Cemetery has served as a community burial ground and open space for nearly 150 years.

Now organized as a 501(c)3 nonprofit and managed by a volunteer board, the cemetery preserves the past, is engaged with the present, and looks toward a long future as a community resource.

Easter Sunrise Service

Sara E. Palmer

We’re gearing up for our fifth annual Easter Sunrise Service, at 7 a.m. on the morning of Sunday, April 24. Once again, the Rev. Rebecca Hazen will join us — rain or shine, but hopefully shine — for a nondenominational service and homily, with dedication of the first two memorial plaques in our cremation garden. The cemetery is a very special place early on a spring morning.

The service will be followed with coffee, tea, and pastries. Hope to see you there! Directions to the cemetery are available here on our site.

New Cemetery Brochure

Sara E. Palmer

Thanks to a supporting grant from the Oregon Commission on Historic Cemeteries (and a lot of work from the cemetery board) we have a new Mulkey brochure. I am very pleased with how it turned out — lots of color, pictures of the cemetery, visitor information, and best of all, a BIG copy of the 1892 map updated with landmarks. It should be much easier to orient yourself now!

You can take a look here at PDFs of the exterior and interior, or I’ll be happy to send you a hard copy.
