In RE: any photos I have posted, please feel free to use them for any genealogy purposes. If I were going to copyright a photo, it would not be of a tombstone or cemetery - and, those members of the family who are deceased deserve to have their images remembered.

A life, whether long and well-lived, or short in duration, full of promise, or lacking in fulfillment is still a life, and that person meant something to someone.

A Birth Certificate, media or family history, will tell that a person was BORN ... A Death Certificate, a memorial, or family history, will tell that he or she have DIED ... but a picture, a story, an obituary – or memorialization via FindAGrave, will tell you what is most important, which is, that they have LIVED.

Military Service: I follow the accepted standard of putting rank as title in the prefix box if the service member retired from the military with that rank, or died holding the rank while in active service.
