Bio
I am from Candler, NC. I have a high respect for Cemeteries for their historical record and blood lines. If I take any photos and pictures of cemeteries and/or grave, you have my permission to use them freely. Please feel free to message me anytime. I try my best to add as many photos of gravestones for requested memorials as I possibly can. I've been adding GPS location tags as well. **Please note that a lot of these cemeteries in western North Carolina are in areas where cellar service is not available. And the GPS cannot be used.
The main reason I do all this, is because I had a request in from a man buried in Texas. We served together in the Army during the War on Terror for three years at Fort Bragg. Became really great friends, almost brothers. As he was processing out of the military, he was walking down a sidewalk and unfortunately was stuck by a vehicle of a distracted driver. I found out that he was buried in Brownsville Texas. And I knew that I'd probably never be able to drive down there. And pay my respects. I have had the cemetery location saved on my Google account since 2015. I requested a picture for the headstone and I waited for 6 years. One day I received a notification, and I had received my picture request and it made my day. That one picture brought me so much joy. And to my surprise he had a very elaborate headstone, lots of engraving, symbolic symbols from the military, breath taking. So I will do my best to repay it forward.
