Located in the Oaklawn Memorial Park cemetery in Athens Texas is a large sculpture of a book, representing a bible. Three verses from the gospel of John are etched into the cement book:
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
John 14:1-3”

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God
Ephesians 2:8"
