Nestled in the heart of Lutz, Florida, the Lutz Cemetery stands as a timeless testament to the community’s history, honoring generations of families who have called this area home. Established in 1911 on land donated by C.E. Thomas, president of the North Tampa Land Company, this cemetery has grown from a small burial ground into a cherished historical landmark.

The first burial took place in 1914, when Mr. Nims was laid to rest, marking the beginning of a century-long tradition of remembrance. Today, the cemetery is owned and operated by the American Legion Post 108 of Land O’ Lakes, FL, ensuring its preservation for future generations.
