Beville Family Plot
														
									July 7, 2003
Dear Kinfolk and Friends,

Sadly I must report that when we made plans to go to the Family Plot in 
Center Hill for the annual clean-up shortly after the reunion, we were informed that 
one of the bad storms that very weekend had broken off large sections of the big old 
oak trees that shade the plot.  Thankfully, there has not been any damage to the 
monuments or the cement block fence.  But, as you can see in the pictures, it will be a 
delicate procedure to successfully remove the branches.  

The Cemetery Fund has $300 remaining from past contributions plus an 
additional $100 from this year.  While we do not have to pay for the clean-up, we feel 
an obligation to make a decent contribution towards the extra expense for the extra care 
that must be taken to preserve the cemetery.  Back in the 1950’s, T. Sol Beville and 
Herman Beville thought it was important to maintain the grave sites when they built 
the cement block fence to keep cattle out.  Hopefully you continue to feel the same.  
We would appreciate any additional contribution you might be able to make towards 
this unexpected project.  With  your help, the cemetery will remain another 100 years 
or more for our grandchildren’s grandchildren.  

Please make checks payable to Mary Greer and mail to 848 County Road 457, 
Lake Panasoffkee, Fl 33538.  If you can’t contribute at the moment but would like to 
make a pledge for a future date, please feel free to do so.  Just drop a note with the 
amount and date you wish to pay.  I’ll be glad to send you a reminder.  No amount is 
too small.  
The clean-up will be documented and reported on at the next reunion.  I will 
make a keepsake presentation as a token of appreciation for each who contributes.  
Thank you in advance for your generosity.  

									Sincerely,
									Mary Greer and Liz Sumner
P.S.
	The next edition of the Beville Chronicles will be out soon with the 
announcement of next year’s reunion.  I hope to have some exciting news about a 
cousin’s visit to St. Michael’s Church.  - ls
