Denver City Memorial Park cemetery was established in
1951 when 10 acres of land were purchased for a cemetery. The first
person buried here was John Boulter in March 1951. A cemetery
improvement and beautification project was begun in 1957. Women and
men cleaned the area. Then they planted grass seed, shrubs, trees,
and hauled material for fencing and posts. Individuals, businesses,
organizations and public officials contributed to the cemetery improvement which
made it a proud addition to the town of Denver City. (Source of
