A Poem Titled,'The Rose Beyond The Wall'
In Memory Of Rachel Mooney Green....

Near a shady wall a rose once grew,
Budded and blossomed in God's free light,
Watered and fed by the morning dew,
Shedding it's sweetness day and night.

As it grew and blossomed fair and tall,
Slowly rising to loftier height,
It came to a crevice in the wall
Through which there shone a beam of light.

Onward it crept with added strength
With never a thought of fear or pride,
It followed the light through the crevice's length
And unfolded itself on the other side.

The light, the dew, the broadening view
Were found the same as they were before,
And it lost itself in beauties new,
Breathing it's fragrance more and more.

Shall claim of death cause us to grieve
And make our courage faint and fall?
Nay! Let us faith and hope receive--
The rose still grows beyond the wall,

Scattering fragrance far and wide
Just as it did in days of yore,
Just as it did on the other side,
Just as it will forever-more.

~A. L. Frink

TEMPORARY HOLDING PLACE TIL PHOTOS ARE TAKEN

Dear Photo Volunteer,

This is a request for a photo of John Greene's
monument
Thank you for volunteering to take time from
your life and family to go out and photograph
the monuments in our cemeteries, some of which
would never be seen by loved ones, except for
your effort. If you can, would you take photos of
the monuments of John Green's wife, Rachel and family members that are in the close vicinity of their graves.
If the couple is the only photos you can take please
take those. I am requesting photos for all monuments
named Green in this cemetery, and it would save you
gas and time if you could take them on the same day
while you are out there. They certainly don't have
to be posted immediately to FAG. I certainly appreciate
it.
Sincerely,
Janet Milburn
