Dear all,
My name is Sharon Earl and I live in Parke County, Indiana. My mother
passed away this month and that brought home the fact that one day I,
too, would be in need of a final resting place. My husband and I live
on a farm in Nyesville (try to find that on a map!) and we have always
loved the old Rowe Cemetery in Adams Township but near our home. This
cemetery has many of my husband's ancestors buried there as well as
names of families we knew and loved. We had hoped to be able to be
buried there. When we spoke to the township trustee and realized the
plight of this and many other cemeteries I tried to find out what to do
and thus ended up at your site. What an education I had waiting for me!
My husband is retired from the Army, my father is retired from the Army
and my son-in-law is currently active duty military---the veteran's
issues are VERY important to me.
I would like to help in any way I can and learn from your experienced
and caring involvement in this cemtery project. I especially would
like to attend a workshop and learn more about what I can do to help.
