This memorial is in honor of our ancestors who came from Russia in 1874 to settle in the Rosenhoff & Rosenort area. Behind this memorial is an unmarked cemetery where some of them have been buried. Of the 22 graves, only 8 names are recorded. They are Delegate David Klassen and his wife Aganetha, Mrs. Abram D. Klassen, Mrs. Henry L. Friesen, Peter H. Friesen, Aganeetha K.Eidse, Mrs. David B. Klassen & Mrs. Gerhard Siemans.
"For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust. As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more. "
Psalm 103 . 14 - 16
