Dick Duck Cemetery is located north of Catoosa. Take N. 193rd E. Avenue to Pine Street and turn right. The cemetery will be on your right.
James Riter was just a young boy of 7 years when he passed away. His headstone is a concrete monument with a rounded top. Above the inscription is a circular concave area engraved with a dove. The dove is carrying something in its mouth - not an olive branch, but something that looks slightly like a small child. These headstones are always so sad. The inscription reads:
James Riter
Born
Mar. 20, 1875
Died
Nov. 8, 1882
