Golden Evening for Cemetery Tour

Two of the Glendower Historic Characters at the Lantern Light Cemetery Tour

 
After a horrific storm  which broke at 4:00 pm on Friday evening, we had a golden evening for the Lantern Light Cemetery Tour.  Thirty guests toured the Lebanon Cemetery meeting famous people from our past.  Pictured above are two of the Civil War era dear departed; Lucy Boake, wife of banker Robert Boake and granddaughter of famous pioneers Francis and Mary Craig Dunlavy; and Rigdon Williams, son of Glendower's first owner and builder J. Milton and Mary Rigdon Williams.

We are expecting another thirty or so visitors this evening. A special treat is in store for the Saturday night group as we have two characters playing Laura Bellini; one as the fifteen year old Laura Woolwine and one as the international opera star, Laura Woolwine Bellini (her stage name).
