From Oakwood Cemetery:
A French quote and an amusing name.
Belden Wigglesworth
1901-1977
Pendant que je restais en bas dans l'ombre noire
d'autres montaient cueillir le baiser de la gloirie.
_ _ _Cyrano de Bergerac
It's been a few years since I've been in French, and I'm not familiar with the original work, but the quote translates to something sort of like: "While I remained in black shade others went up to gather the kiss of the glory."
From Forest Hill Cemetery:
I love the poetry of this one, though I can't be sure exactly what it means if I really think about it.
Fear not the night
Thy soul is awake
with the stars
