Columbus Dispatch Reporter, Holly Zachariah, has covered news about Ohio's cemeteries in various types of stories spanning several years. I can attest that's true; and I'm sure there may be some I missed.
Be sure, though, not to miss reading this one!
Thanking Holly for bringing us this spotlight story published November 30, 2020 because it is one we so rarely find in content about an Ohio cemetery. That is because so rarely does someone like Randel L. Rogers come along. He is the Executive Director of Green Lawn Cemetery in Columbus.
Perhaps better known as Randy Rogers by those who are familiar with him and his dedicated work, he painstakingly preserves the cemetery's grounds. He gives special attention to the needs of the monuments and markers that identify the gravesites of both the famous and the lesser known souls who found peace and rest at this historic landmark cemetery.
Be sure to scroll down the page and view the four minute awe-inspiring video interview with Randy Rogers as he describes some of his work with preserving the trees and monuments at Green Lawn Cemetery.
We hope for more truly inspirational cemetery stories like this one to come along - ones that could only be made possible by someone as uniquely qualified and dedicated as Randy Rogers.
