COMMENTS - The headstone back and edges were encased in resin bonded fiberglass applied about 1977. In October 2007 the headstone was excavated and the fiberglass backing was removed. Some loose broken pieces were bonded in place with epoxy adhesive. Mortar was applied to fill cracks and large voids due to stone loss in the front and back. The stone was cleaned and reset.
