Weirdest thing happen to you in a cemetery?

Few years back I was taking pics in a local cemetery and had my dogs with me. I looked down a row of stones and saw a elderly man in farmers bib, kind of weather work looking if you know what I mean. He was crouched down with one hand on top of the grave, his head tilted down- gave me feeling it was his wifes grave. Well I looked away to get a line of sight on my dogs and turned back- no man to be seen. Instead there was a single black crow sitting on the grave.

Ok guys time to go! And off me and my dogs went post haste!

I posted a grave marker back a few that was mettle- some form of aluminum or pot mettle. Here is another example of a mettle stone- only in cast iron. I think it has survived quite well for 153 years!

Hezekiah Ballard. Died November the 4rth, 1751 at age 70.

I chose this one due to the embellishments. All the circles and star burst and scroll work. Somone put in a lot of work for Mr. Ballard!

Grave stone of Edith & Horace Hebert, Lowell Cemetery, Lowell Mass. Not sure what the chair signifies as he was a harness maker. Should note- I have a chair with the same dog heads! I think they are Irish Setters. Will have to add picture of mine. He was from Germany so Why Irish Setters???

I know I said I was going to start posting from the thoudand of gravestones i have pics of but my time has been occupied caring for my elderly parents. My mother, unfortunately passed away Sunday. She had cancer and we knew it was not far off so I bought a plot for mom and dad last October. Now my mom loved cardinals. Near where I bought the lot was this stone. Was thinking of having a cardinal on hers.
