Decoration Day







Today,  Louis and I took Mom to Decoration Day at Jones Hill Cemetery.   My forefathers and their families have a stone that marks their life for us to remember.  My personnel memories are still fresh of Grandmother and Grandaddy Patton, Betty, Uncle Johnnie, and  Dad.  This day was so important to Daddy  and becomes more important to me with each stone we erect to remember.   Here are some reflections of the day.

What a beautiful spot to remember those who have gone before us. For us, it is a place so rich in history, filled with the names of loved ones who were our examples for living a good and Godly life.

Wish I could have been with you to remember.

Tell me where to send it and I will send a check to help with the yearly maintaince of this lovely hill top. Thanks for the pictures.

Merry
