Today, Dan and I went to Waltham to take his parents out to lunch for his dad's birthday. During lunch Dan and his dad were talking about a friend of theirs who passed away a few years ago; today was their friend's birthday too. After lunch when Dan and I were back in his truck, at almost the same time he asked if I minded making a stop and I said I thought we should go to the cemetery where his friend's grave is - that was the stop he wanted to make.
I have told Dan that some of my relatives are buried in a Waltham cemetery but I had no idea which one since I had only been there once and that was 20+ years. After visiting his friend's grave we were winding our way out of the cemetery. Not really thinking much of it, Dan had asked what the family name was on the off chance it was the same cemetery. Needless to say I was speechless when we came across what the pictures below are of.
Coincidence? I don't think so.

That's pretty neat, sounds like you're having a great time! Hope to catch up soon!
Wow! That is very interesting and I'm sure Cap will be very interested in those photos. No, it was not a coincidence!
Thanks Hope for the pictures, and Marion for the alert. I worked about two hours yesterday on the Mayflower Priest- Pratt Line, and will be requesting shortly information through Waltham for the certificates for some of these relatives. This will be of great help. Hope were they all in one 'plot' or area? That would be significant
Hey Cap!
I have all the cemetery documents in my freezer. You seem like a more appropriate person to have them.
Is this a "Bones" show locker? ha ha
