I live in northwest Iowa. I enjoy looking for stone requests and trying to tie the family members together. Feel free to use my photo's. If you would like to manage a memorial, please message me. Thanks! Linda

There are mistakes, old and new. Be nice, let's correct them! It's not about us, it's about respecting the departed. Thank you.

If You Could See Your Ancestors

By Nellie Winslow Simmons Randall

If you could see your ancestors

All standing in a row,

Would you be proud of them or not?

Or don't you really know?

Some strange discoveries are made

In climbing family trees.

And some of them, you know,

Do not particularly please.

If you could see your ancestors

All standing in a row,

There might be some of them perhaps

You shouldn't care to know.

But here's another question

Which requires a different view

If you could "meet" your ancestors

Would they be proud of you?
