While placing American flags in Highland Lake Cemetery, the Grangers at Highland Lake Grange P of H No. 87 thought it would be nice to mark the graves of members interred at the cemetery. Kathy Gowen came up with a design, and we worked together to assemble them at our last meeting. We identified 16 headstones of members (including married couples or multiple members in a family with one headstone). Several were charter members of Highland Lake Grange in 1875. Here are photos of a few of them.
What a wonderful idea, wish we had time to do it for our members. You should sell these as a fundraiser. I think you have a mioney maker. Thanks and good luck.

I agree with Barbara Bailey. This is a great idea. Please consider making them to sell. I think our Grange would buy some. It is also a way to promote the Grange and let people the Grange has been around for a long time and is still here.
