Collage-174


This collage is a Memorial Day Tribute to my maternal grandparents. They are both buried in the Veterans Cemetery in Knoxville. My grandmother was an army nurse and my grandfather a medic I think. Each Memorial Day weekend, local scout troops put a small american flag on each grave. There are about 9,000 graves here. It is truely inspirational to see.

Your collage is wonderful. All the images stand on their own very well and the compilation adds the important factual details. Well done!

That's a very thoughtful collage - and so personal for you and your family. I hope you share it with them, and frame a copy for you!
