St. Gabriel's is a full service cemetery offering in ground plots, two existing mausoleums. The cemetery and historical church were established in 1878. The mausoleum consists of 876 crypt spaces and 144 cremation niches. The stained glass windows on the outside and the inside depict the risen Christ. The white statues on the front of the building are imported from Italy and from the left are St. Gabriel, the Blessed Mother, St. Joseph and the Sacred Heart. The parish of St. Gabriel’s continued to grow along with the local population. Through the years, the church building and an adjoining rectory both experienced a fire on the cemetery grounds. The church was damaged considerably with the roof being destroyed. Fire also plagued and destroyed a church hall that was erected behind the church after World War II. The structure was actually two former army barracks that had been purchased for the church by the Collier Sisters. Many well-attended church dances were held in this hall. There was a small kitchen in one portion of this building. One evening after one of the famous dances where upwards of 600 people were said to have attended, the fire bells rang out. The hall burned like a paper bag, and there were many sad people who watched it go up in flames.
