Photo of headstone was taken on Sunday August 26, 2012.

While trying to find other older headstone a lady was also at the cemetary. She was bringing some really pretty purple daisy type flowers. She asked me if I would take a photo of her friends husbands headstone and put it on Find a Grave. I said certainly. She said Walter's Wife's name is Susie and she is sick with Cancer and lives in Utah.

I truly hope she gets better.

The lady had tears of happiness, as per Susie was upset that she could not visit her husbands grave due to her own illness. The lady gave me a big thankyou, and she also said Find a Grave has united a lot of people with their lost relatives
