The Tribute Of The Cows

Hub
The Tribute Of The Cows

My Grandpa Hub was a dairy farmer for many years (that's why he's holding a glass of milk in this photo with the Lone Ranger). His farm was right next to the cemetery, so when the cemetery needed to expand (insert the standard "because people were just dyin' to get in" line) my Grandpa sold them four acres with the provision that his family got a few burial plots in the deal. So my Grandpa and Grandma, my Uncle Max, my cousin Terry, and my Mom are all buried in the cemetery right next to the old family farm. When my Grandpa Hub was buried in 1969, all the cows came over by the gravesite and stuck their heads over the fence. The tribute of the cows.
