"A
visit to the Gravesite."
Dear Ancestor,
Your Tombstone stands among the rest, neglected and alone.
The name and dates are chiseled here,
on polished marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who care,
though it is too late to mourn.
You do not know that I exist,
you died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you,
in flesh, in blood, and bone.
|
|
The place you filled so many years ago,
I wonder if you could have known,
would spread among the ones you left
in all the seeds you 've sown.
I wonder if you lived and loved?
I wonder if you ever knew?
That someday I would find you this spot, and come to visit you?

Six miles from Boulder on the
road to Denver,
one can see a monument
on the right side about
quarter of a mile from the
right of way.
The headstone is in the
proximity where his body
lies in an underground mine.
The inscription reads:
Joe C. Jaran Jaramillo
1887-1936
A faithful employee
who died in there
performance of his duty.

halfway between Ward and Left Hand Creek
is a tree with a board nailed to it
with the inscription:
Mary Ann HARRY

It is said there were once 60 graves at this sight.
