died within 2 years after their father's death) and 2 daughters who survived
both parents.

Step back in time as you read is. Remember this was a time of farming communities, soil tilled by horse or mule and a walking plow. Hogs killed in cold weather provided meat through the winter months. There were no cars, no telephones, no electricity, no indoor plumbing. These were a hardy stock of people, that we call our ancestors, and I'm glad they were. They help to make us strong today. They built schools for education of their children; churches for worship together as a family. They built homes, raised their children, and, died.
When you stop to read a tombstone in the cemetery, pause to remember those that have gone before and what they endured. Let us keep alive their legacy. May we also build strong schools and faithful churches. And when it comes our time to be laid to rest in this old cemetery, may those that gather, resolve to carry on the tradition established by these "Old'Timers"....written by Cass W Reasor.
