Like most cemeteries, ours dates back to the Civil War. Here we find our quiet heroes. I've noticed that most veterans do not talk about their time in our country's service. They are forthcoming only if prodded. Today I walked up and down the rows of our local cemetery saying each veteran's name out loud knowing nobody has said most of their names for many years.
