I AM FIRST GRANDCHILD AND WAS 4 AT HER TIME OF DEATH BUT I CAN REMEMBER HER AS THE MOST WONDERFUL GRANDMOTHER EVER. SHE WAS YOUNGEST OF 4 CHILDREN (BOY GIRL BOY GIRL). HOWEVER DATES MIGHT BE IN ERROR-HER PARENTS MARRIAGE DATE ON HEADSTONE IS 5-1-24 BUT HER DOB IS 1925 (FROM BIRTH CERTIFICATE) AND OLDEST SIBLING WAS BORN IS 1927 PER HIS HEAD STONE.

Inscription

I HAD HEADSTONE PLACED IN 2008 AND HAD CAMEO PICTURE PLACED ON HEADSTONE. MEMORIAL PARK CEMETERY IN COLUMBIA MO CRACKED/DAMAGED THE CAMEO AS SEEN IN PICTURE PLACED BY RON CRAIG. AFTER ALMOST 1 YEAR OF MONTHLY VISITS TO GET MEMORIAL PARK TO REPLACE THEY DID SUCH A POOR JOB THAT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS AS A GOOD PLACE TO DO BUSINESS WITH. NOT ONLY WAS THE STONE POOR QUALITY THE PICTURE PLACED ON THE STONE LOOKS TO BE A STICKER WITH NO DETAIL OF HER CLOTHING IT ALL SHOWS AS BLOBS OF BLACK AND WHILE IT IS SMALLER CAMEO THAN ORIGINAL THEY DID NOT CLEAN THE GLUE FROM HEADSTONE BEFORE PLACING THE NEW STONE THEREFORE THE SEAL WILL NOT LAST VERY LONG. BETWEEN THE SEAL AND THE SUN FADING THE "PICTURE" I DONT THINK IT WILL LAST VERY LONG. SO THE WHOLE POINT OF PICTURE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO HAVE AN IDEA OF THIER ANCESOR WILL BE LOST.
