Photographer's Description:
The mysterious 9 granite blocks at Glenwood Cemetery.
Anyone know what they are for?There are 7 names inscribed, some without death dates (just birth). All males, and all with different last names. Only one of them googles to something, and that was for a Landscape Architect that died in 2000.

Thanks for choosing the pic as a photo of the day.
I've received a bit of information about the blocks over the weekend and will post it on flikr soon (waiting on permission).

That's actually one of my favorite monuments in Glenwood — totally different from most anything else in the cemetery.
