I have been doing my family genealogy since 1983, and have gone back 500 and 600 years on both my mothers and fathers side.

I understand the importance of cemetery records and headstones, the stories and information you can find in the stones, can lead to an enormous amount emotional wealth.

This is why I have decided to volunteer to help others by trying to locate graves of loved ones that have no markings or have lost their markings, and should be recognized, as well as take photos for peoples loved ones final resting places who other wise could not get the photos due to being out of state, out of the country, or for other reasons unable to get the photos them selves.

I take my grandkids with me, ages (updated 10/20/20) are 6, 9, 12, 15. as I want them to learn early, that just because someone dies, there not truly gone, their memory must lives on, and the importance or visiting their graves, to show them respect, how to take care of the grave, such as trash pick up clipping grass around the stone etc, and how important it is to help others (with the find a grave photos) and the importance of our family history and where we came from, to continue OUR family heritage. there never too young to learn. its all about planting the seed in their mind now and help it to grow.

Let the long lost be found and reunited once again, even if only in the heart. .
