I’d been concerned in previous years about the upkeep of the Friedens Cemetery, just across the boundary of the City on Bellefontaine Road. It was once the cemetery of Friedens Evangelisch Church in Hyde Park, but as is so common, when that congregation closed, the burial grounds’ fortunes went in a different direction.
However, on Saturday, when I visited, the grounds were well mowed.
There were some branches blocking roads, but for the most part, I did not see a lot of dead trees like on past visits.
I also took a look at the mausoleum, which I hadn’t really examined in the past.
