Lake View Cemetery was hit with a series of embezzlement scandals in the twenty-first century. In 2006, a groundskeeper pled guilty to stealing $87,709 from the cemetery.[2] In 2014, a former caretaker and president of Lake View Cemetery was charged with embezzling over $50,000 and "selling or giving away" much of the cemetery's equipment.[2] The cemetery is currently in operation, selling burial lots and providing burial services.[3]
Notable burials
Given its proximity to Cornell University, the cemetery includes a number of significant figures from the university's history, including members of the Cornell family, and the graves of faculty members.
