Message Board Post:
I went to Fountain Park Cemetery today to do a request on my way home. While driving back
to section 12 and 10, I came upon a mess caused by a fallen evergreen tree, probably due
to the very high winds we had two nights ago. Thank goodness there is a team there at
this cemetery to deal with it. When I was done with finding and taking pictures of my
requests, I went back and took picture of the area and the stones of the area. One stone
is turned about 90* and what I assume is a family surname stone is off it's base, and
it was huge, what a force that tree was to knock it off. So I took pictures of the
following names.

Harrison, Helen Pauline Shigley, Emma A. McCoy, Martha M. and Frank J. Resler)
