Cantrell Cemetery
Gibson Co. TN
Transcribed by
From
Milan city limit, going toward Gibson (Hwy.70A & 79). First road
to
the left (Mullins Lane). On a Hill back of the house on the Cantrell's
Farm
(Eventide) is a wooden fence in area. Inside this area is a gazebo
and a
iron fence area for the cemetery.
Inside the gazebo is a 4 sided
monument with a small girl with arms
uplifted (La Brezza). A bronze
plaque is on the monument.
And
in that quiet garden-
The
garden of her heart-
Songbirds
are always singing-
Their songs
of cheer apart.
And from it
floats forever,
o'ercoming sin and
strife,
sweet as the breath of
roses
blown,
the fragrance of her life.
Our Beloved
Marcia Jean Cantrell
At the
iron gate to the cemetery is a Bronze plaque.

"If a man does not keep pace with his
companions,
perhaps it
is because he hears a different drummer. Let
Him step to
the music he hears
however measured or
far away."
This is a very well kept
cemetery.
Respectfully yours,
