Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Fwd: Marking Unmarked graves

Forwarded message -- thanks to Barbara Brinkley for sharing it.

My only comments are that you need to seal the concrete stone with concrete

sealer, or it is likely to break up quickly -- the concrete they use isn't

the best quality. And, you need to dig out a shallow "trough" to put the

marker in so it can't be moved by kicking or mowing.

 

>During this season of decoration of graves, it is vital to get unmarked

>graves some type of notation. Anyone knowing who these folks are

>would be encouraged to place some type of marker.

>I have placed many in these old cemeteries with markers that were very

>inexpensive to make.

>

>I go to the local Lowes, Wal-mart et. Get a one inch flat solid concrete

>block,

>a landscape block (the one I use if placed upright looks like a small

>tombstone).

>Then off the local Awards company and have a 5"x7" plaque made on

>stainless steel. Black with silver or gold embossing does great. I started

>with

>plain silver and etching, but these do not show up as well.

>I glue this engraving to the front of the landscape block with liquid

>nail.

>Then attach the block to the flat 1 in concrete block.

>

>The overall look is that of a small tombstone.

>It is better than having the grave remain unmarked.

>

>If anyone would like to see a picture of one of these, email me at

>dougg@hsnp.com

>and I will send a photo of how it looks. It takes under $20 to do one of

>these and are light enough for anyone to place by themselves.

>

>I priced a small footstone size marker and they run $40 to $60 dollars.

>So you can mark two or three for the price of one.
