An Autumn Walk at Lake View Cemetery (Inspired by Mayday's post from last year)

I really enjoy exploring and meandering about Lake View Cemetery on a quiet Sunday morning.  There is so much to see.  Making note of grave-site names and then researching the family involvement in Cleveland history is an amazing endeavor.  There was such an incredible concentration of amazing human beings that created Cleveland in the 1800's and early 1900's.  Reading about the bankers, industrialists, shippers leaves me in awe.  Sadly, it seems around the time of the Great Depression, most of them passed on or left Cleveland and we've been left with the aftermath of their industrial wasteland that was a side-effect of their prosperity...
