I have for you today selected stones from St. Rose Church Cemetery. St. Rose is located slightly southwest of Springfield, Washington County, Kentucky. St. Rose is where my mother was baptized, made her First Holy Communion and married twice. Many of our ancestors are buried there. It’s a beautiful church!
