Beth Jacob Cemetery...Follow up
I first stumbled upon Beth Jacob Cemetery in May and shared these thoughts and pics. Well, I visited the place again just recently and found that someone had mowed the grass a few weeks earlier. That was about it. Make sure to check out some to the comments from that earlier post.

After sitting down with the folks from the Jewish Federation last month, I started to take more than just a passing interest in this place. This time I made a point to count the graves as best I could. There were a 276 that I was able to count. 74 seemed to be in pretty good shape. The rest...were just...well look at the pics.

There is a quality even meaner than outright ugliness or disorder, and this meaner quality is the dishonest mask
of pretended order, achieved by ignoring or suppressing the real order that is struggling to exist and to be served.
