Colquette Cemetery Restoration Complete

The long-desecrated Colquette Cemetery near Walnut Ridge is back in shape at last. Fall activities included removing a summer invasion of pigweed, priming and painting the cast iron fence, repairing and resetting tombstones, fortifying the citadel of earth around the stones, and installing a layer of weed barrier and river rocks.
