Oakwood Cemetery - Warsaw, Indiana

Blanche Kerr Brock wished to be memorialized by the hymn that, of the many she wrote, was her favorite.  Oakwood Cemetery is twelve miles from my hometown; I would probably do lots of walking there if I lived closer than 970 miles.

  1. Born 1888...Today Sieg and I walked many a cemetery where the birth dates were in the late 1800s. We are on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. As a friend of ours wrote to us..it's too deep for words. I think of that hymn composer..her 70 years...her life....am wondering what piece of music I'd have on my tombstone...perhaps something about an ongoing journey😉
