May 21, 2013
Have recuperated from my surgeries and am back at my Grace Cemetery project. It won't quite be complete by Memorial day, but very close. I will keep working on it till that day and then just have to do some revisions. I am again taking pictures out at Fort Logan National Cemetery too.

Working on my family trees since 1976.

When my brother passed away in March of 2010, I wanted to do some kind of volunteer work in his honor. Since he is buried at Fort Logan National Cemetery, I became a volunteer for that cemetery. However, I also wanted to do the photos of my family that have passed on. Since my husband and I are retired, we began stopping at many little cemeteries and taking pictures of tombstones and listing them on the web site.

I am currently trying to get my hometown cemetery photographed (Grace Cemetery in McDonald, Kansas). When I started I think there were 70+ on the list and now there are 815 names. I am still taking photographs there when we go see relatives. McDonald is going to celebrate it's 125th Birthday in May of 2013, and I am now trying to get all the obituaries typed. I don't know if I will have all of them done but I am going to give it my all.
