Ruth Lucille Curtiss Final Resting Place

I took these photos on a beautiful March day in 2010. Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cypress is in Long Beach, California. It took a while to find my Great Aunt Ruth's grave as the numbering system is hard to make sense out of and some of the markers were worn off, but I finally found it. She is buried in Section: Dawn, Lot: 4116, Space: 3.
