My maternal grandparents are buried there…grandfather in 1939 and grandmother in 1960. I attended my grandmother’s funeral, walking behind the horse drawn hearse from my aunt’s house behind the cemetery on Ropery Street and up Southern Grove. I visited a few years ago (live in US) and spent a morning alternately walking around and/or sitting on benches appreciating nature’s takeover and the peaceful setting.
