    3. I visited that cemetery in 1999. My pictures show an intersection of Hendrix St. and Elm with a green road sign, reasonably large, saying "Rest Lawn Cemetery" with a straight ahead arrow, which would be pointing straight ahead on Elm St.. There is a gray mobile home/manufactured home sitting directly behind the sign (at least it was that color in 1999). My next picture shows a Dead End road sign with an gated entrance to the cemetery street sign that says Father A. Spicuzza Drive. I don't think it was a long distance from the intersection of Hendrix and Elm. I can remember going there as a child on "Decoration Day" but I don't remember it as being as large or nicely maintained as it is now. Maybe I just don't remember! I know when I needed to find it I had trouble at first because I didn't know the name had changed. It is in a really out of the way location. If you visit during the week and get lost, go to the Mayor's office on U.S. 40, and they can radio the cemetery caretaker to meet you (at least that has been available to us twice when we have gone to two different cemeteries there). If you visit on Saturday, the Brazil Public Library could probably show you a map. The mayor's office has free maps of the city, or used to. The cemetery caretaker had some very limited records and maps of the cemetery. A lot of the records are gone, I think.
