Monument Survey

Monument Material:    Granite monument and base, no apron apparent
Auxiliary Stones:   Granite MOTHER and FATHER stones
Monument Problems:  Serious rodent undercutting of SE corner of monument base; not yet tilted, but in jeopardy.  Main monument was toppled in 2008 and suffered edge chips and scraping from collision with the Glenn Baker stone.  It has since been re-set and secured in 5/08.  MOTHER stone is also seriously undercut and has reduced legibility due to lichen.
Engraving:                  Mint condition except for lichen staining
Illustrations: Border decorations, modified curtain and beautiful deep relief carving of flower and leaves.
Flower Containers:    None
Other Remarks: One of seven monuments and eight burials of record in Lot 59, all of which are within a concrete border that surrounds the Baker family plots.  The border surrounds all of Lot 59.  This is the primary family stone with particularly fine carving.  It is being seriously undercut by erosion and ground rodents.
