Good morning sweet and precious girl,

I was so happy to get these photo's. Cousin Loyd has had
problems with him scanner for a long time and finally got
it fixed. I just screamed when I opened my mail and there
they were. I still don't have a scanner/printer. So if you would do the honors of putting them on findagrave, I will thank you in advance.

There is one problem with Uncle Nathan's grave site, Decatur City Cemetery does not have him listed as buried there! I knew this from my searching for him, years ago. His wife Aunt Bertha Cleo Holt-Reeves is listed and a photo of her stone is on fag.

Loyd talked with them and he said Nathan is there, but no record of it. I sent Loyd a copy of Uncle Nathan's obit and it clearly states that he is buried there! The
lady at the office told me & Loyd that even though he did not have a head stone, there should be a listing of his burial site there, but it isn't.

Wendy, what do we do about our folks that were cremated and their ashes are spread in some place, other
than a cemetery? Loyd's Aunt and my cousin, Hazel Leota Reeves-Wolf was cremated in California & spread in the St. John's River, where Hazel and her husband Al,loved to fish. My nephew, Everette Lee Holden was cremated, and his ashes were buried next to Mama, Lillie Sue Holden.

Have a wonderful day,"
