THE BEYOND
It seemth such a little way to me
across to that strange country,
the Beyond, for it has grown to be
the home of those of whom I am so fond
and so for me there is no death
it is but crossing with abated breath
a little strip of sea, to find one's loved
ones waiting on the shore, more
beautiful, more precious than before.

We greatly appreciate the efforts of the hundreds who have spent their
time in the Louisiana cemeteries documenting our history. These wonderful people have unselfishly allowed their hard earned work
to be published here or elsewhere on the internet, to which we have
linked from this web site.
