Because of Facebook, Kara has been able to better promote the preservation efforts for Okay Hill Cemetery which include translations of inscriptions for several stones written in other languages including Cyrillic and Hungarian.
Many thanks to my Facebook Friend, Cheryl Bakker, who was able to translate the inscription on the stone for Ilija Pakaski.

"NW Indiana mother of 2... Dedicated to preserving the memory and posterity of our ancestors, and I also enjoy learning about myself from the past, and also helping others to connect the dots as well.
I am particularly interested in advocating for more respectable conditions for Oak Hill cemetery in Hammond, IN. For more info:

I will gladly take photos at St. Mary's and Maplewood Cemeteries in Crown Point, and will attempt to fulfill other requests on other cemetery adventures."
