Cloverdale Cemetery

Back in May 2007 we were traveling through Boise, Idaho and so along with stopping to visit family, I talked my wife into stopping at Cloverdale Cemetery. It wasn't very far off I-84 and I knew some of my family was buried there. It turns out the following six family members are buried there (that I am aware of), and, as luck would have it, their graves were even all in a row next to each other. I do not know what the letter G represents as part of the Masonic symbols that appears on three of these graves. Also, as a side note, when we got there it was sprinkling and hard to read the graves. All we had in the car were baby wipes, and they saved the day! I actually use them now whenever I need to clean off a grave.

The ‘G’ stands for Geometry.
