| Bio and Links |
I am from Biloxi,MS.and I love cemeteries and I love visiting them.I love being a FAG member. When I pass even a small one as I'm driving along,I have to go back and visit it. I straighten the flowers up and visit the babies. I get to help relatives and friends connect to their loved ones through the photos I take for them.I do my best to make the headstones look very nice. Before I take the photo,I clean around them as much as the FAG rules allow. For me, this is the most rewarding experience there is. I can't think of anything else I would rather do. I hope that when I am gone, I am visited and remembered in the same way. I will be buried next to my grandson Larry Trevor Nash .My Grandchildren and my poodle Ginger get the rest of my time. Just kidding sometimes they come first!
I want to thank everyone who leaves flowers and notes at my memorials. I do take time to look at them. Thanks so much.
You may use my pictures, just name me as the original taker.
I COLLECTED POSTCARDS .NOW I AM FINDING THE NAMES FROM THE CARDS ON FIND A GRAVE. Postcards are posted on memorials under Postcards in My virtuals cemeteries.
The Dash Poem, by Linda Ellis
I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on her tombstone
From the beginning to the end
He noted that first came the date of her birth
And spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years
For that dash represents all the time
That she spent alive on earth.
And now only those who loved her
Know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not how much we own;
The cars, the house, the cash,
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard.
Are there things you'd like to change?
For you never know how much time is left,
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what's true and real
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger,
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we've never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect,
And more often wear a smile
Remembering that this special dash
Might only last a little while.
So, when your eulogy is being read
With your life's actions to rehash
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent your dash.
My Father is: Cecil Warren Galle'.

Ann, wow, I have corresponded with Theresa's mom, many, many times. I do know that her mother, Reba and she have done a lot of looking for Grandma Dona. And I really worried about Reba being out in the heat or cold. She is such a precious person. I would love to meet them one day, but if not down here, then we will be together in Heaven, for sure. Tell Theresa hello for me, and many thanks for all her searching!!! And tell Reba to email me. I have lost her email. I had a different email address back them. I will email you personally, with MY email address to give to Theresa and Reba. Thanks again!! All 3 of you are blessings to me!! My Angels on earth! | | | Della Andrews Yerby

Ann, thank you so much, for keeping my grandmother in mind, while you are out looking. There would nothing to make me happier, than for Grandma Dona to be found. But, one thing for sure, when I get to Heaven, she will be there. Before my daddy died (her son), he pointed up and mouthed the word Mama. He was on life support and couldn't speak. But he also let us know that he saw Jesus! How blessed we were, to know that he saw this. I have a lot to look forward to, when I get to Heaven-----Jesus first, my parents second and Grandma Dona. Thank you for being so kind. I will email you personally, about my possible kin being buried in a cem. near you.
Thanks again, from the bottom of my heart. You are truly a blessing for others. | | | Linda Ellis
| Unmarked graves
Hi Ann,
I got 'dowser' Julius Redmond to come over and check for unmarked burials in some VC cemeteries and he found two unmarked graves in VC #1 that may be your family.
One is an adult male between Willis & Catherine Broadus, the other is a Baby Girl by Franciso Juan, husband to Mary Broadus. They have to be Broadus kin, since they are in the Broadus plot/area,
don't you think.
I've added all the unmarked burials he found, with the hopes someone may help us find out about them.
Any ideas...

Hello Ann, have not been on here for a while. Will share some info you might like to have. Frances Rebecca Cordelia (Fanny) Bryant Bryant, born 5 Dec 1874 died 19 Dec 1954 and is buried at Union Hill, Myrtle, Miss. So is her husband Thaddeus Sylvester Bryant (her cousin) and three of their ten children. She is in Find A Grave at Union Hill Cem. Perhaps you and Kathy G. and S. Meigs can connect these sites in Find A Grade. If you find her in Ancestry.com, I have entered notes from my Gr Elgin's diaries --Ryan Bryant Roussel Harlan Tree. My grandmother was Olia Elgin Bryant Ryan. My mother was Gertrude Olia Ryan Downie. Would love to hear from you. Rosemary Downie Noel -house bound w sleet and snow in SW Missouri. | | | raoul
