Deaths are recorded. Families are reunited. Memories are made tangible and Love is undisguised. This is a cemetery.   Communities accord respect. Families bestow reverence. Historians seek information and Our heritage is thereby enriched.   Testimonies of devotion, pride and warmth are carved in stone to pay warm tribute to accomplishments And to the life-not the death of a loved one. The cemetery is homeland for memorials That are a sustaining source of comfort to the living.   A cemetery is a history of people-a perpetual record of yesterday and a sanctuary of peace and quiet today. A cemetery exists because every life is worth loving and remembering- Always.   Author Unknown The Lutheran All Faiths Cemetery ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to PADUTCH-LIFE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
