Our sales and executive team has been focused on serving under-represented groups. We work directly with local community groups to make final planning easier and cost-effective for immigrant groups and people who can't afford the other local cemeteries' prices. We also are South Dakota's leader and pioneer in providing green burials. Mount Pleasant Cemetery is one of the longest-running burial operations in South Dakota. Opened in 1873, we contain the graves of Fort Dakota soldiers along with the first non-denominational chapel in Sioux Falls.
