[HistoricCemeterieslistserv] Simison-Hale

[Lynn & Judy DeSpain]

The new owners have said that they will let us on the property!  So we  
hope in the next couple of weeks that we can all get together and do  
an inventory and then act accordingly.  There are only four or five of  
us at the most that show up to work and all of us are in their  
seventies (Maybe one in her eighties).  So we will be hiring people to  
work.  I was in a bad accident 9-25 and have fractures in my back and  
I split my sternum and broke all ribs.  Although, By The Grace Of God,  
I am so very much better, I am absolutely not to do any work out  
there.  They don't even want me to do any yard work or housework for a  
couple of months.  They think this is why I am not healing better  
(Because I do too much). This is yard because I have been working on  
the cemeteries since I was a little girl with my grandparents!
This property is not far from Jefferson, but in Linn County.  PLEASE,  
we don't need anyone bothering the new owners.  They have agreed to  
work with us, but that could change if anyone but Association members  
start knocking at their door.

Thanks, Judy
