Sobre IBD

Mount Hope Cemetery was dedicated in 1838 and became the first Victorian park-like cemetery in the country, inviting visitors to walk among its hills, valleys, eskers and glacial kettles. At 196-acres, the beauty of the grounds is awe-inspiring to everyone that has had the pleasure of witnessing it. More than 350,000 people spend their eternity here, from all walks of life they lay side by side without discrimination. 'Death comes equally to all of us and makes us all equal when it comes (John Donne).' Headstones memorialize the movers and shakers of Rochester just the same as the local grocer or the child who died too young. This purpose of this book, the first in a series of 5, is to share the stories of those who sleep in this stone garden and offering the reader the opportunity to explore this landmark in a totally different way.
