Hooper
The helmet caught my eye – and it would have caught yours, too, I think – as it’s not a typical thing to spot in a cemetery.
Much sadness: Nathan Hooper was 27 years old when he died and had only been married about a year and a half; his safety helmet seems ironic.

I am the way
On a day when my only plan was to drive around and look at stuff, a road sign that said “cemetery” with an arrow pointing down a dirt road was a siren call. Why, yes, I believe I will drive down and see what sort of cemetery Pontotoc might have!
And that’s how I found out that, in addition to headstones and stuff, there was a stone Bible verse right there on the way in.
