Three doves of peace (on two monuments) can be viewed from the posted co-ordinates. While Beechwood Cemetery dates back to the 1870s, apparently doves of peace are found only on monuments from the last twenty years.

A pair of doves adorn the polished granite memorial concerning Joseph Stanley Torrens and his wife Norma Jane (Doughty) Torrens. On the newer monument, there is a single dove carrying a large olive branch on the memorial for Genovaite (Sosaite) Balaisis and her husband Leonas Balaisis. These two memorials can be visited in section 100, Beechwood Cemetery.

Kind of dove: Dove with olive branch

Used material for the dove: Other (explanation in the long description)

Address:
280 Beechwood Avenue
