So much damage..
Below are just a few of the stones that have been damaged over the years.
We need to clean all of the stones so we can read them. As of June 2025, we have approximately 95% of them done.
We've had a few work days and have been repairing and straightening stones. There are still more that are leaning and need to be reseated as well as repaired.
