Memorial Day Cleanup


On the Sunday evening before Memorial Day some of the churches got together and helped clean up the veterans section of the Shiprock cemetary.

This was done in preparation for the memorial service to be held on the following morning.

It ministered to me as I read the names on the tombstones. Most of the families that have loved ones buried here take very good care of the graves. In fact there are some ornate and awesome displays presented at the gravesites.

What is sad is to see some of the plots which have obviously fallen out of care.

May God bless the families and friends of these who gave the most that could be given.
