Garden Of Memories

Paducah, Cottle County, Cemeteries of Texas

    Photos by Gary Webb

Location: The Garden of Memories Cemetery is located on the south part of town on US 83, about 100 yard east of the highway on a paved road. It is extremely well kept and the most remarkable feature is this little gazebo like structure which is mostly made of stone that houses a list of all the interned in a binder free for public inspection. The listing is by sirname and easy to use. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to copy it, as the file was quite large, and wouldn't you know it, I forgot to take my protable zerox machine with me! Perhaps we will be able to get the inscriptions posted here soon. Until then, enjoy the pictures.
