New Mount Ida Cemetery Gravestone Cleaning & Restoration Project

Yesterday, I was notified by my friends, Alysia and Cameron, who are rehabbing the New Mount Ida Cemetery in Troy that they are securing Joe Ferrannini from Grave Stone Matters to rehab a number of gravestones in the cemetery from Friday 29 June through Sunday 01 July. All of the selected stones will need to be cleaned with D2 and prepped; then Joe will make the necessary repairs to the gravestones.

Alysia and Cameron are asking if anyone is interested in helping with this project. They adopted the cemetery a number of years ago and have made significant progress in bringing the cemetery back. For years it was neglected and forgotten. Today, the cemetery is well on its way to returning to its former glory.

If anyone is interested, the details are below.
