As a young child, my grandparents would take my sister and I on walks through the cemetery in Crystal Falls, MI where they retired. Meandering through the cemetery, they pointed out various relatives, explaining how we were related. Telling stories from their lives. In addition, my grandparents took responsibility for watering flowers on the graves of family members who had nobody living close by. I have always felt someone should tend the sites and care about those that have passed on.

My Father spent more than half of his life attempting to put missing pieces of his family puzzle together. This task has been difficult. My hope is to not only help my Dad put final pieces together, but to assist others in completing their puzzles with less struggle.

Combining my interest in cemeteries and my quest to help people discover their family members, I hope to join these together here. I will gladly add any pics, offer to take local pictures, and share or transfer. I am only on here for research and connecting the missing pieces.
