The Stone Lady That Weeps
Speaking of cemeteries this nice carved marker/memorial is in the St James Espiscopal Cemetery, across from the Maritta Junior High School, and what used to Marietta High School, when I attended.
Through the years this graceful lady and her twins had to sit motionless by while vandals threw paint on them, chipped off pieces of them, and no telling what else. They are just a stone's throw from Jon Benet' Ramsey's grave. Literally!
It has been said that at midnight if you walk around the mother and her children three times and ask her what happened to her twins she will weep. I doubt it. I think if she could do that she would throw grab the paint bucket and throw it back at them.
