Alexis Reunion Cemetery Tour











































This took place about 10am Sunday morning in the parking lot of the center where the Alexis Reunion was held. We all gather and take a tour of the local cemeteries. Two of the cemeteries are in the woods and are hard to find. We all have fun and it gives us a couple of extra hours to share our tales and stories. I will post a few photos of the cemeteries next.

More Reunion Photos



























These were taken at Mount Zion and City Cemetery in Cherryville on Sat before the big reunion on Sun. We always have a great time on the Sat get together. It gives everyone a chance to spend some quality time together.
