Dedication
This
page is dedicated to Margaret Vose Ph.d
A professor from Eastern
Connecticut State University,
who through the assignment of this project in
a American Fork Art class,
re-instilled in me,
the love of gravestone
carving.
Through her obvious love
of life,
her kindness, and
her generosity,
she encouraged me to
share this love with others.
