For our service project for May we decided to do something with Memorial Day. Our club decided to put some flowers on graves that had not received any flowers. The idea came when Grandma Lee Ann went to California and her sister in-law, Grace, gave her a gift card to buy flowers for her husband's headstone and his parents who are buried next to each other. Grace wasn't able to come to Utah this year. Maybe that is why some headstones do not have flowers, because their families live too far away.
Joseph William and Eliza Buckley Hulse Grave
Joseph William Jr. and Charlotte Lofthouse Hulse Grave
Carma Hulse was Joseph and Charlotte baby daughter. LaRue Hulse another daughter is buried there in the same area along with Joseph's sister, Emma Pearl Hulse.
After putting flowers on the graves of our ancestors, the Joseph Hulse Families and children, we then looked around the cemetery to see those graves that did not have any flowers on. There were plenty to choose from.
We did headstone rubbings of all the graves we put flowers on.
Colter really wanted to put a flower on a headstone of someone who had served in the military. So our last flower was given to Frank B Skrepcinski WWII born 1919 died 1998. Colter did a rubbing of the medal that Court is holding.
It was a nice day to remember our ancestors and those people that have served our country.
