We are grateful for our community’s investment over the last decade–focused on restoring and preserving our beautiful cemetery. Today we look back on a before-and- after photo, in reflection of how far we have come. The future is bright for Springdale Cemetery.

Remembering Robert A. McCord (1920-2007), a true Peoria leader and visionary.
After serving in the WWII Navy Reserves, Robert practiced law in Peoria from 1948-1990. He championed civic reform, successfully changing Peoria's government to Council/Manager, and served as an alderman/councilman in the new system. In the 1970s, as part of the Peoria Downtown Development Council, he led the Downtown plan, revitalizing the area to accommodate a new civic center, buildings, and parking. He was a dedicated trustee and chairman of the Bradley University Board, and served on boards for the Peoria Symphony Orchestra, YWCA Advisory Board, and Springdale. His legacy includes numerous awards, such as the Bradley University Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters and induction into the Peoria "Central" High School Halls of Fame.
A lifetime of community dedication, Robert is entombed at the Springdale Mausoleum (E8).
