William's stone reads
Randy writes:"Kind Father of Love thou art gone to thy rest, Forever to bask mid the joys of Blest."
The pic you have shows his stone restored, but I am afraid it might not be in that good a shape these days.This is what it looked like before the cemetery was cleaned...check out Susanna's stone on the left.
Randy writes:He never married, but was adored by his neices and nephews. Johnny had the tin-types of Sam, George and "H" Jobe until Runell Jobe Shaw got them and years later gave them to me.
