Beaufort National Cemetery is a beautiful place.
I remember it from when I was a kid. I used to go to Beaufort, SC often to visit my grandmother who lived there.
Beaufort is a quiet town, going back a few hundred years. The cemetary goes back to the War Between the States.
It's small, certainly no Arlington, but distinguished by its solemnity and peacefulness.
There's a wonderful touch of Old World to it... oak trees, cypresses... is beautiful.
Dear Reid and lovely children, what certain solace those graceful trees cast. I am holding all of you in my heart and have you in my thoughts as I wander off to dream. And the good "Fred" too. His memorial is magnificent.
