St. James Cemetary - South of Avon
The year slowly meanders its way to All Hallows Eve many of us have or will take the time to remember those who have passed before us. There are many traditions that some use to honor this time and ritual. Some set an extra place for those gone before at the table on the eve of October 31st. Some hold a special time of rememberance and place pictures and other items that resemble their loved ones.
Myself I enjoy visiting the cemetary. I have always been amazed at the stories behind each headstone marker. Although I do frequent my family and friends on occasion it is this time of year when I just go visiting. There have been some over the years that I have grown attached to and wonder about the story behind them. Jackie Moon and the children that surround her is a good example of this.

Yet today I am keeping with my love for the beautiful art that can be found as one walks through so many cemetaries. I would like to share some photos of some of my favorites. I have not visited each one yet their beauty is amazing.

There is a peace that comes to one when they stroll through a cemetary.

I am sure that there are places where a restless soul may reside and the aura may not be as settled as most.

Yet for the most part it is calm and serene.

The love can be seen in many of the monuments that have been placed in honor of those passed.

Such detail put into some as if to place a watcher next to their loved one for safe keeping.

This week take a few moments to remember those who have passed before us. Reflect on the gifts they gave you as well as the ones they still give. And if you have some free time on a beautiful October day, consider taking a stroll through your nearest cemetary. You may be surprised what inspiration you might receive.
Blessings

I, too, enjoy walking through a cemetary... the stones are fascinating and I always feel so peaceful...
Graveyards are just lovely for so many things....
I love cemeteries. They're so peaceful and beautiful! Families used to picnic in them to stay close to their deceased loved ones.
I also get a feeling of peace and serenity when I visit certain cemetaries. I also collect art of Graveyard Angel's which I love. Beautiful post, Mother Moon.
I also love cemetaries. The beautiful head stones and sculptures. I love taking peacefull walks through them.
Janie, you are such a beautiful writer-very evocative. I like cemetaries, too. Our youngest son, Patterson is named after a long ago relative, Pvt. John Patterson who is buried in the Patterson cemetary, the oldest cemetary west of the Mississippi. Or so my mom told us. Could well be a myth.

My name is Selma Espinosa I'm a 46 years old mother with 3 adorable kids and I have been married for 17 years now. After the birth of our last daughter 2 years ago, I noticed something about my husband that was completely different. He comes home late every night, sleeps on the couch never in the bedroom with me and doesn't give attention to me or the kids. I remember the night he came home drunk and told me he was no longer attracted to me after I had kids.
I cried myself to sleep that night, I could not believe that the man I have loved all my life will someday stopped loving me. Just few days to our wedding anniversary, he stopped coming home and would not take my calls. I had to talk to a friend and she suggested I contact a spell caster who could help me bring back his love and attention. It was the first time I heard such stuff existed, I give it a try with high expectations. After my contact with the Priest spellcaster, he helped me cast a spell that made my husband return home to me and our kids. I know a lot of people need this to help them stay happy in their marriages. You can contact Priest Obongibok let him help you; write him on email OBONGIBOK@PRIEST.COM or WhatsApp +13612367973.
