Cemeteries are unique collections of rich histories, stories of lives well-lived and those left unfinished. As I look down on the headstones, I can't help but wonder about the people who have passed on and if their story has been told. I try to fill in the blanks to maintain a permanent memorial of those who are no longer with us so their story can live on. I am in Southeast Michigan and am trying to capture the details of my family's graves while helping the families of others.
