Three Ladies Of The East Union Cemetery

Brought To You By Souza's Heating and Air - Manteca. @souza360.com for Mark Souza. There is a parcel of land on the corner of Louise and Union road in Manteca. That piece of ground is Manteca’s only cemetery and most of the pioneers and settlers of Manteca, it's military heroes from Manteca, all if not most, were, and have been laid to rest, there, on that parcel known as the East Union Cemetery.

It has been run for a century here in Manteca. There have been lots of people taking care of this private property/parcel/non profit and for the past few decades, some of the business practices were being taken into question, and rules weren’t necessarily being followed as they should if you are going to be an accredited cemetery and its future was up in the air. It was not looking too bright for the day-to-day of this Manteca Historic Landmark. There were some ladies that have, and had, ties to people buried there and family members who were on the cemetery board

luckily these 3 ladies did some homework and learned what was happening at the cemetery and were worried, about its issues and possible fear of a very realistic closing. They thought that’s out of the question, we have generations buried here. while inquiring about the place that houses so many resting Mantecans.

3 ladies who met at a small meeting decided to dig around and do some learning and in the process resurrected it and now preside as fully accredited cemetery operators. These are three ladies that were inducted into the Manteca Hall Of Fame for what they have done to save this place and they don’t want any notoriety for it that’s too bad..  I am here and you’re going to hear why so many people love them and with a father whose final place happens to be that address, I sleep well now knowing who is responsible for fixing up the cemetery’s issues and making sure That I still have a spot to visit to see what I have to remember him by along with many generations of Manteca buried there..

It’s a small stone in the East Union Cemetery. He has a home because of this week's guest they call em the 3 Amigos. I am going to say Amigas as that would be proper for their gender. Anyways tighten em up here we go on the podcast about Manteca and its heroes still living. Gloria, Janet, and Janice are on.. from the East Union Cemetery.
