I am a writer, historian and paralegal in Michigan. I have a profound belief that forgetting our past is the first step to losing ourselves. I fully support Find a Grave and the cemetery maintenance and recording projects pursued by dedicated individuals like Spirit Dust, who also happens to be my sister. Each life was meaningful, no matter how short. Each persona who lived deserves to be honored and respected in death.
