NOTE: I do not crop my death certificates, I believe they look better uncropped. I pull them from the Washington digital archives site (original source), not from Family Search or Ancestry (secondary sources copied from originals at Washington Archives).

9/28/2024: Photographed the last of Section B, the "North Section" and a little bit of Section K along the west side of the roadway. Lot of gaps in the fence along this north edge of the cemetery. Torn up and hard to maintain.
7/11/2024: Finished the last of Section C and today photographed Section B. Had a couple of photos from Sleepy Hollow that had not had memorials created. Worked on them also.
6/28/2024: Photographed the rest of Section C and starting on those now.
4/19/2024: Photographed part of Section C a few weeks ago and starting to enter those now.
2/16/2023: Today I walked a little less than half of Section D. 4/19/24: Finished the photos I had of Section D. It is mostly all done and built out, so I'm not taking photos of the rest of Section D.
Working on creating memorials for the last of Section E. (finished)
6/1/2023: I have walked Sections M, Cedar Slope, Section O, Section F, part of Oak Lake 1, and Section E (Sept 2023) of Washelli Cemetery and put/putting the memorials online/added photos. Oak Lake 1 has been done by many and I found nearly no new memorials to be created. Did not finish photographing Oak Lake 1.

Growing up next to a marvelous Jewish Cemetery gave me a love for the peace and park-like quality of a cemetery. When I was in Poland people had family gatherings at the graves on the night before our Halloween - candles, food, levity.

Since the cemeteries I walk are in my home state I know my way around the available sources for information and have access to the online Seattle Times through the local library. In researching my own family I'm always delighted to see an obituary or any other information detailed on a FindAGrave memorial, so I try my best to help others out by adding death records, obits, or any other tidbits. I also connect the graves I enter to their relatives if possible.
