"At the time of the creation of this memorial in 2011 the name on the marker was "Lula Gray" and a photo was added showing that. The current marker is a replacement marker and the original photo has been removed. Lula was divorced from Ivey at the time of her passing and she was buried under her maiden name. Someone has changed that!"
