Bettye - Karen is my cousin. Karen, these girls belong to Clint & Lizi (?), your Dad's parents, correct? But, Karen may know, as I do, Helen Mae is my mother's oldest sister, that died at birth. Philip & Mary Jane Dickey are my grandparents. I never knew that Helen was buried there, even my mother didn't know it. Most of our Dickey family is buried at Parkview Cemetery in Farmington.
