Bio
I have no interest in managing memorials except for my own family. I've added memorials, especially from my home town, in hopes they are waiting for family and can do a bio or take edit control of them from me. I will be happy to transfer to any relative following Find A Grave guidelines.
If you send edits please provide the data to support your request, as the memorial needs to be accurate for a future family researcher. Thanks!
********************************************
Dear Ancestor
Your tombstone stands among the rest;
neglected and alone
The name and date are chiseled out
on polished, marbled stone
It reaches out to all who care
It is too late to mourn
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you
in flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
one hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left
who would have loved you so.
I wonder if you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot,
and come to visit you.
