Received the cemetery book last week....thanks! Again, you have done a great job. Seems like I have searched 'hundreds' of cemetery books, but yours are the best that I have seen. Thanks so much I agree 100%, the book was great!!! The format was exactly like the cemetery is laid out and was a wonderful help in finding many relatives. I grew up there and walked that cemetery many times and she made me feel as if I was there again just by reading the book. I can't wait for the Rose Hill Book. My Mom, Grandparents, Great Aunts and Uncles, and some cousins are buried there and although I know where they lay I will cherish the book greatly. I will definitely be on the list for this book. Everyone--- If Donna's Rose Hill Cemetery book is as wonderful as her Cleburne Memorial Cemetery book is--- well hurry up and place your order!!!!! Donna did a wonderful job on the Cleburne Book, I cannot sing her praises enough. We all owe her tons of thanks for undertaking such a very hard job. Thank you, I received my copy today. I have been having a field day!! It is well done and I have already added several pieces of information to my project. I greatly appreciate your hard work!
