Part time caretaker of Marvin Methodist Cemetery. This cemetery was nearly abandoned. Mr. Cline, due to having family buried there and his own sense of doing the right thing helped care for the cemetery. Though he was mostly too old for the physical labor involved with mowing and leaf removal, he often arranged to have this work done.
