[HistoricCemeterieslistserv] 1918 tomb

[Dora Cemetery]

Did you get an answer?  I believe the state will pay for a contractor to fix the tomb. You would need to get a bid. Then you will have to have volunteers work in the  cemetery the number of volunteer labor hours depends on the cost of repairing the tomb

At the time his family was very generous to the town of Fossil, the old Legion Hall in Fossil was named in his honor the Arthur E Glover Hall and also the city park.
