The cemetery is located on a hill, with east-facing headstones. There is an older church and bell tower on the property. Founded early in the century, the cemetery was Russo-Orthodox at the outset. The current building on the property replaced the original 1913 church, which had been destroyed by fire. Originally this building began as a school, but was purchased by the Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Congregation of St. John Parish in 1963 and remodelled. With the exception of the Orthodox cross on the front of the storm porch, there is no outward evidence of this being a Ukrainian house of worship. The building has pointed windows and no domes, which suggests the presence of non-Ukrainian architectural influences when the remodelling took place. Traditionally, one would enter a Ukrainian Church at its west end and face east during the service. This was based on the belief that the faithful had chosen to leave the darkness of evil in the West and enter the road to Christ, who is called the "Light from the East" in the Holy Scriptures. St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Orthodox Church, however, has the worshipping congregation facing west, indicating that this tradition was not always followed.
