Ok, one more graveyard to visit...Waubaushene..that's where my 'sweetie' is buried...

Graveyard built on a hill so at least I didn't have to worry about mud/mud and more mud...

A little story about this tombstone...

Roger passed away just minutes before midnight on New Years Day...same day as our son's birthday...we all stood there while they tried to revive him..Greg kept crying and saying 'it's my birthday-he's died on my birthday' so I asked the specialist because it was now a few moments after midnight and he now had gone to be with the Lord, could they please put death as being Jan.2 for my son..guess one minute or two either way isn't the end of the world...although his tombstone says Jan. 2...Greg always says my dad died on my birthday, which he did...it was odd..when we returned up north during that night, the clock in the dining room had stopped just seconds before midnight...and also there was a fern that Roger loved, came from my grandmother, and it was so large it filled almost the front of a patio door...it was dead...

to the right of Roger's tombstone is his father, left roses there, and to the right of his father's tombstone is Uncle Marcel..he lived at the back of our home on the lake, I love him dearly..roses on his grave as well...
