Oops, one more

I noticed after I posted yesterday that there was one more urn-centric monument from Oakland Cemetery that I could have posted, so here it is today.


Of note:
  • Greek style of the urn
  • Dr. James Reese McKeldin, Ph.D. (seems a little redundant to me to state both Dr. and Ph.D. titles-- I wonder in what? He was obviously proud of it.)
  • Bessie McKeldin Clark somehow died in Mexico

Some scale for the last one:
