I'm a lifetime local of the eagle valley, fourth generation in fact. I currently live in Mintum where my wife and I are raising our two beautiful children. I work for one of the local government public work departments, and done so for fifteen years. My wife works at a local supermarket and our children attend the local schools. In the past year and a half we had the opportunity to work with the Minturn Cemetery. We had a death in our family. We lost a dear loved one. It was a tough time for all of us. The help that we received was unbelievable. In tough times it good to see that there was a place and people who could help, and did. They made the experience much easier to handle.We have many family members in the Minturn Cemetery. For me it holds a special place in my heart. I've seen the cemetery go through lots of changes over the years. I think over the past few years it's gone through a huge overhaul. Something that needed to be done. The cemetery got what it needed to make this happen, the right people at the right time. I would like to continue this tradition and keep it going in the right direction for the next generation to enjoy. If I'm chosen, will do my best to keep the standards high and keep the cemetery looking and running the way it should. Thank you for your time, Art Chavez.
