What A Disgrace

After finding my long lost relatives on Ancestry.com we went for a tour of graveyards in Maryland to find my family's burial sites. While visiting my family, I made it a point to visit St. Peter's Cemetery in Baltimore to pay respects to my Great Great Grandfather's burial plot. All the earliest Wunder's who immigrated from Germany are buried here, including my Great Great Grandfather who was a Photographer in Baltimore in the late 1800s. St. Peter's Cemetery is a disgrace. A lot of the monuments are pushed over, in disrepair or buried in this groves of trees between a row of projects and a tire reclamation warehouse. I said some prayer's for the deceased while we were there, but I am frankly embarrassed to be Catholic.
