When I posted about Uncle Pete and Aunt Ruby, I didn’t have the best photo of their headstone, so I put in a request at Find-A-Grave. A kind volunteer obliged me by taking these. I’m going to add them to my original post as well.
Here are closeups with the locket closed and open.
The headstone mentions Psalms 23, so I thought I would share a version here.
Psalms 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley,I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Wow, what a gorgeous headstone!
And unique! A love story headstone.
Precious
Yes, it is! Thanks, Joy.
How kind of the volunteer to take those photos for you! I love the locket. It must be waterproof.
And snow and ice proof, too :)! Those people who take cemetery photos for Findagrave are so dedicated, especially when they are the ones who don’t hold management of the pages. Just wonderful to see what it looks like as I had only seen parts, not the overall design.
It is a lovely memorial.
He/She took great pictures for you. I have never seen this kind of locket for a photo on a grave before…genius!
I haven’t either! Really special!
Wonderful news! So lucky to have someone help!
Find-a-grave volunteers can be really helpful!
