Taking Care of Forgotten Cemeteries
WTAP News
About 150 cemeteries in Wood County have been forgotten by the general public and if left alone for much longer could eventually be totally lost to everyone.

A last grasp for immortality... from six feet under. Once you have faded from the memories of the living, should you have the right to tie up a patch of ground in this world? Where does it stop? What about the ancestors of the "Indians" that were here when Europeans arrived? What about the ancestors of the "mound builders" who were likely wiped out by the "Indians"? This world is for the living, not the dead. There are better memorials than a hunk of granite and grass, if you want to be remembered.

I think this is a great idea. After all this is our ancestry and our forefathers. Also, remember our Veterans all over the USA and these graves are a part of that. Our ancesters are why we are here, so let's do our part to remember them.
