Beloved

I believe in letting images stand on their own. But this image moves me to tears. I found a cemetery in Santa Fe which is a place of remembrance for people of all economic stations. This stone had been written on in marker and that had worn away, and the new writing is in puff-paint and that is wearing away. How short this life was and yet he is still remembered. How long will this grave be tended?
