Tombstone Tuesday


The detail work on this headstone is amazing.I need to go back for better pictures.Many of the earliest graves in this small cemetery in Rocklin Ca. are of natives of Finland.It is interesting the variety and number of immigrants in the early burials in foothill cemetery's.

Sonne. That was the name of my son's principal when he was in high school.
That really is an interesting and beautiful tribute.
