Hey Everyone!! We are still here! Gail and I ordered a few headstones for the unmarked graves we verified with ground penetrating radar a few years back. We have placed them in concrete and would like to have a small ceremony when we install them in the cemetery. How about a cemetery clean-up, headstone placement, and an All Saints prayer/candle lighting (and, of course, food and fellowship afterwards!) the weekend of Oct 30th? P.S. the stones look better after we cleaned them!

I met up with a friend who was meeting others to help clean Budapest Cemetery in Budapest, Georgia, a town that only exists because the cemetery is still there. At the end, they lit candles to honor those who call this their final resting place. Budapest, Georgia
