Collection: McLarens Resthaven Chapel & Resthaven Cemetery - West Des Moines
Resthaven Cemetery was established in 1931 by W.H. Colvin on the site of the former Mountain Dairy Farm. It was among the 1st cemeteries in the United States to allow only flush-to-ground grave markers.
R. Harley Riggs and Carl Ripper bought the cemetery from the Colvin estate in 1953.
Mrs. Fred Chander gave the cemetery its 1st pair of swans, Jack and Jill, in 1955 in memory of her late husband. Jack and Jill lived at the cemetery lake and raised a family. The lake is still home to ducks and swans, including a couple also named Jack and Jill.
