Tombstone Photographs

THIS IS A CEMETERY
LIVES ARE COMMEMORATED - DEATHS ARE RECORDED
FAMILIES ARE REUNITED- MEMORIES ARE MADE TANGIBLE
AND LOVE IS UNDISGUISED - THIS IS A CEMETERY

COMMUNITIES ACCORD RESPECT, FAMILIES BESTOW
REVERENCE, HISTORIANS SEEK INFORMATION
AND OUR HERITAGE IS THEREBY ENRICHED

TESTIMONIES OF DEVOTION, PRIDE, AND REMEMBRANCE
ARE CARVED IN STONE TO PAY WARM TRIBUTE TO
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND TO THE LIFE - NOT THE DEATH
OF A LOVED ONE.  THE CEMETERY IS THE HOMELAND FOR
FAMILY MEMORIALS THAT ARE A SUSTAINING SOURCE
OF COMFORT TO THE LIVING

A CEMETERY IS A HISTORY OF PEOPLE- A PERPETUAL
RECORD OF YESTERDAY AND A SANCTUARY OF PEACE AND
QUIET TODAY.  A CEMETERY EXISTS BECAUSE EVERY LIFE IS
WORTH LOVING AND REMEMBERING - ALWAYS.
