Four years later... #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter

Wow. Four years ago. That seems crazy. And I think this stone is dirty again. #onthisday #gravestonecleaning #ladytaphos

George passed in St. Louis from Bright's disease. He was married, but it doesn't appear that he and his wife had any children. #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter #transformation #cemeterypreservation #ladytaphos

I cannot believe how different this one looks now! Viola and Victor were twins who passed away from cholera infantum. #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter

Wow. Just wow. 🪦 🧽 Melvina was a highly educated schoolteacher and principal who made a tremendous impact on her students. One son and two grandsons survived her. #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter #transformation #marble

I think this is called a fit check?Anyway just thought I would document that sometimes I wear something besides jeans and work clothes. 😁

That rinse! This clean scratches my brain in every way possible. I think Bowyer and Anna were married and Harry was their son, but I'm not sure if James was Bowyer's father or some other relation. Maybe someone else would like to sort this one out for me? 😊 #gravestonecleaning #cemeterytok #transformation #beforeandafter

Happy 94th Birthday, Uncle Dean.❤️ #gravestonecleaning #storytime #myfamily

A kind gentlemen reached out to me recently and asked for my help. Well into his 80s now, he wants to make sure his daughter has nothing much to worry about when his time comes to leave this earth. Cleaning the family monument where he will be interred was one of the things he wanted done. It was my honor to do so. 🪦 #gravestonecleaning

Nothing else happens before that final shot other than time passing. I waited 9 months for this one. Frances Horsley Brown was a daughter to Edmund and Lucy Gwatkin Horsley. She married John Calloway Brown in December 1883. Sadly, he passed away of typhoid fever in 1903 only two days after being elected to the Virginia senate. Two sons were born to the couple: Granville passed away as an infant in July 1891, and John became a lawyer and a justice of the court in Bedford, Virginia. Fannie resided with her widowed sister Edmonia for the last 20 years of her life until she passed away from stroke complications. #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter

Such a sad story. #gravestonecleaning #ladytaphos #storytime

Ruby married her first cousin. They had a son and a daughter, but no grandchildren. I wonder when was the last time someone tended her grave? #gravestonecleaning #beforeandafter
