Dear Lois,
The Civic Association had a meeting Tuesday night; they were told that
volunteers will have to go to Henderson for a 2-hour class to learn how to
help with the repair work.
An account has been sent up for donations for repairs:
Grandview Cemetery Repair and Restoration Fund
C/O Helen Tremper
P.O. Box 663
Grandview, Indiana 47615
Two mornings this week I worked at the cemetery and made a list of all the
stones that are down. If anyone has a relative that they are interested in
finding out about, you can forward them on to me.
Sincerely,
Becky Middleton
