Part 2.  Off-site memorials

Many of the Neal Family who lived at the park are buried at Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland. Their graves are below the front of Garfield Monument, where the slope begins to flatten out.

​"Oppmann" was Clara Neal's maiden name. 

The gravesite consists of the single rectangular slab with names of the family on all four sides, and the single large pillar at on the downslope end.

It was raining at the time the picture on the left was taken.  The carved "Neal /Oppmann" on the pillar looks almost too dark to read.  The close up above shows the same panel.
