Donnagene and Kim, Thanks for mentioning all this. I hope I will NOT find my family's obits to say they were buried there, but if I do, I will at least know I won't need to look for stones. I feel for those like Rhonda who are forced to deal with the results of a community's disregard for some of its veterans, pioneers, and their descendants.
