It is however quite comforting, the thought that maybe someday, long after I'm gone, and the sons of my grandsons are all forgotten, that maybe some kind soul would take a moment to take care of a lost stranger, and tell a bit of my story. Beautiful.
My grandfather was away at Greenbriar Military School. He lost 3 siblings to dypyheria in two weeks. He said his life was saved because he was away. So sad for my great grandmother.
Oh! I cleaned a beautiful marble stone and the base was like this one. You can see chisel marks on it. I thought it was marble, but now I know it wasn’t. Thank you so much for this insight!!
I now see why not to use a wire brush. It takes a layer off. Are you the sexton of this cemetery? You do such a fantastic job. Thank you for all your hard work.😊
I have watched a number of your and other resetting videos and wonder what purpose the lead wedge really serves? Is it there to maintain the gap for the epoxy?
This past memorial day by daughter and I made the trip to saginaw michigan to visit my grandparents' grave, I hadn't visited the cemetery in 47 years. We noticed the the top portion of the memorial stone had slid forward a bit. So we cleaned it and planted some flowers, made a call and had someone come out to fix it. I dont think any of my extended family had been to the cemetery in years, so it was nice to be able to do this for my grandparents grave.
