Why so many photos of this cemetery stone? Blame it on the sun. We walked by the stone several times and couldn't read it until we looked at it sideways and upside down! The only way to take a picture was for my husband and I to stand side-by-side and cast a shadow. And, that is how I got my half-decent photo!
