This is a cemetery . . .   Lives are commemorated Deaths are recorded Families are reunited Memories are made tangible And love is undisguised.   Communities accord respect Families bestow reverence Historians seek information and Our heritage is thereby enriched.   Testimonies of devotion, pride and Remembrance, are cast in bronze to pay Tribute to accomplishments, and to the life, Not the death of a loved one.   The cemetery is homeland for memorials That are a sustaining source of comfort To the living.   A cemetery is a history of people A perpetual record of yesterday and A sanctuary of peace and quiet today. A cemetery exists because every life Is worth loving and remembering – always.                                                                                                        Author Unknown   Presented to the Houston National Cemetery, Houston, Texas, July 27, 2002 By The Texas Lone Star Chapter – Korean War Veteran’s Association
