Walker Monument, Homewood Cemetery

Miller Monument, Homewood Cemetery
A slim and elegant Art Deco stele with a lily-bearing angel, this monument is a bit of a puzzle. The style is of the 1930s or thereabouts, but the two people commemorated both died in the 1860s, before the Homewood Cemetery existed. One can only presume that their descendants made a pile of money and decided to remember them properly.

Peter Hermes Mausoleum, Calvary Cemetery
A fine Corinthian temple most remarkable for its bronze doors, a pair of angels bringing a message of peace.
-
Hershman Monument, Homewood Cemetery
A restful bench and a beautiful high relief make this monument an inviting spot for a few minutes of contemplation.
-
Aaron Monument, West View Cemetery
A monument in a sort of Jewish Romanesque style, with a Star of David worked into the relief. Compare it to the very similar, but explicitly Christian, Jenkins monument in the Homewood Cemetery.
