"Cemetery Rumblings" story:

The ghost of this retired newspaper man has been seen by visitors near his grave, which is at the McDonald Avenue entrance to the cemetery.

In 2003, the woman who maintains Mr. Lemmon’s plot took a photo of her 8-year-old grandson standing by the pillar at the McDonald Avenue entrance, which is next to the Lemmon plot. She turned the film in to be processed, and when she got the developed photos back, there was a ghostly fog-like shadow of a tall man standing next to her grandson in the photo she had taken of him standing near Mr. Lemmon’s grave. In 2010, she took another photograph of her grandson standing in the same location, and sure enough, once again, the same ghostly figure is seen in the photograph standing next to her grandson.
