About Me

Tombstone Treasures: Well how much time do you have? I'm a native of Colorado Springs and became interested in history and cemetery preservation along with my genealogy research. After raising a family of five, I now have a bit of time to go and pursue my interests more often. I am a member of Find A Grave, the local Evergreen Cemetery Benevolent Society, Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness and part of the Gravesite Caregiver's Network. I intend to feed my curiousity and explore cemeteries until I no longer can....then the next generation can take over where I've left off...don't think for one minute I won't have a hand in the here after as well!! LOL!
