and by word and deed set, an example for their ancestors to follow.  
We, their many descendents are forever grateful to these, 'true pioneers 
for the courage They showed and the hardships they faced.  It is to these 
the grandparents of us all that we give our greatest honor and our 
deepest respect."                     
               Dedicated 5-29-1994
