There is a saying. You never really die until the last person says your name.This is the story of Jacksonville's Cemetery, interwoven with a few moments of life for some of her residents. Rich, poor, good, or bad, each has a story to tell.From its very first burial in October 1859, a climb up cemetery road to the Silent City in Jacksonville, Oregon has been a source of pride for the community and a sign of respect for those who've passed on.What once was called the little graveyard is now home to over 5500 souls and is one of the oldest cemeteries in Oregon that continues to allow burials.
