Married father of four, retired after 32 1/2 years with the Federal Government. (8 1/2 years US Navy, Submarine Service and 24 years civil service) Living in Cherokee Iowa.

Feel free to use any tombstone photo I take. If I fulfilled a request for a photo, then I consider it the property of the person who requested it.

To request transfer of a memorial please use the edit function and be sure to list your number to insure it gets to the right person. My primary interest is in photography and many of the memorials I manage were created from photos of tombstones I've taken. As a result, I'm not at all adverse to transferring memorials of non-family members to members of their families, even outside the requirements of find a grave's family first policy. If I get multiple requests or if it is memorial that is a member of my family it will be handled strictly based on who's more closely related.

Genealogical research:

My family: Harris, Dodson, Van Patten/Vanpatten, Van Devender, Oryall/Ariail, Denny/Denney, Collingsworth, Porter, Tatro/Tetreault

My wife's family: Leeds, Hiland, Arrasmith, Stanford, Wesphal, Jones, Worden, Wilson, Laabs
