The Fayette County Cemetery Commission is having an Open House in Connersville, IN at 8:00 A.M. on Saturday, May 12, 2001. Some details are still pending, but several speakers are planned, to be followed by a Q&A session and a tour of John Walters' facilities and a demonstration of repair techniques. After lunch, a bus tour of Fayette County cemeteries in various stages of restoration will take place. Fayette County is so far ahead of the other 91 counties in cemetery restoration that the rest of us can only stand in awe of what has been accomplished there on a shoestring budget with the benefit of a cooperative effort between the County Commissioners, the County Council and the Township Trustees. Fayette County's program truly is a ROLE MODEL for the rest of the state and possibly the rest of the country. I hope you'll join us in Connersville to congratulate John Walters and Fayette County on what they have achieved. Contact for further information: Ed Herrell <CEHerrell@mail.com>
