As Gate looked in May 2006

Rehobeth Cemetery - Fannin Co., Texas 2006

Rehobeth Cemetery has suffered much abuse and neglect. Over one-third of the stones have been knocked down and/or broken and unreadable. It is very overgrown.
Randy Jobe visited the cemetery in the summer of 2009 and it is in MUCH WORSE shape than it was three years earlier. It is a real shame to see a cemetery in this shape.
Randy's July 2009 photos of the cemetery can be view viewed - Rehobeth Cemetery.
