....A man's good name is his best monument
Although I agree with the sentiment expressed on this monument, what a monument it is to put such a statement on!!
This is the upper portion of the grave marker for Frederick Collins, who died in 1913 and later his wife Ellen who joined him in 1919. Although this is not a Victorian monument, Mr Collins at 75, would have lived much of his life as a Victorian, and they preferred height to girth when it came to grave markings, and this mixed material monument reached skyward in style.
