Bio

A few years ago, I discovered the "Find A Grave" website when doing a geneaology search for our family name. Since I've always loved cemeteries, especially the older ones with personal pictures on the headstones, I thought this might be a nice and interesting "hobby" to do in my spare time. On my first visit looking for a particular grave, it was quite overwhelming despite having the lot and grave information. I never did find the one I was searching for, but I decided then and there to devote my interest to the marked graves of our American heroes . . . all the soldiers who gave the most ultimate sacrifice . . . their lives. Without their enormous bravery and dedication, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the freedom and liberties that we have all around us today.
