Cynthia Snow, FoMC Member, cleans headstones with the Friends of Burial Hill in Plymouth. Her husband's family descends from the Alden's buried here in Purchade Cemetery (and in the photo). Cynthia has organized members of the family to come to the cemetery and clean stones.

The FoMC hosted "the Aldens" and trained them on our techniques. We provided all cleaning supplies, and they did all of the work. We are grateful for the donations that they made, which we will put towards purchasing more D/2 Biological Solution.
