GRANDVIEW FLATS CEMETERY - Seven Day Adventist Cemetery

Beginning in Armstrong, on Wood Avenue, turn onto Otter Lake Road, travel for 5.7 km. - you will be at a

"Y" in the road. Bear to the right and the road is now called Grandview Flats, travel for 3.1 km. This is a confusing

intersection of roads and private driveways, but keep to your left on what is called South Grandview Flats Road

for .6 km. The road goes to the left down a hill - there is what looks like a private drive straight ahead - go

straight ahead. The cemetery is right there next to a house. It is a small graveyard and fairly well kept, though

many of the graves aren't marked and a few of the stones are unreadable.

New chainlink fence with drive-through gate and a walk-in gate, plaque attached which reads:

This Fence Was Donated By The Late Dr. Richard Poirer In The Years 2000."

ILM - In Loving Memory

ILMO - In Loving Memory Of

RIP - Rest In Peace

An asterisk * beside the abbreviation indicates that the transcriber has made the abbreviation

- on the stone it is written out. No asterisk indicates it is an abbreviation on the stone.
