This works because this grave’s location is recorded. Most graves’ exact spots still await a field day with a GPS unit.

That is most of what the public record yet tells us. Alma Cotton was a person who walked this town, not a name on a list, with a life still largely unrecovered. We will not invent the rest. If you are descended from Alma's family, you can add a source, a correction, or a memory. Until then, their name is kept here, with respect.

The stone is still there.
