MELROSE CEMETERY
YOU ARE NEARER GODS HEART IN A GARDEN
THAN ANY PLACE ELSE ON EARTH

For some reason this ones's name gets all screwed up. There was a Melrose Hills Memorial Park on the Dallas Hwy., but was a mortuary and is now closed, and removed. Gone. This cemetery, Melrose Cemetery, is many miles N. of where the old mortuary was...but some how the name keeps getting used.
