Janice Annette Castleberry

 

The cousins came to Sylacauga on January 28th to place the ashes of Jan in the Marble City Cemetery beside her parents. The long delay came as a result of health issues with her youngest sister which prevented travel from California and my own heart surgery. We had a pretty day and the help of a grave digger that once worked with our Uncle Jerry. A somber and emotional time that reminds all of us of the temporal nature of our experience.
