The Benefactors of The Eagles |
Chainsaw Artist Keith Carroll created the two carefully crafted
eagles that now grace the entrance to Lone Oak Cemetery. In 2010, the tree next to the cemetery office was cut, and a tall stump was left standing. Awhile later Keith Carroll was passing by and noticed the stump. He was a talented craftsman who shaped wood into many creatures. The Board of Lone Oak Cemetery discussed his proposal, but due to budget constraints, decided not to do this project. A longstanding board member (Gordon Dorris) thought it was a worthy project and, after discussing with his wife (Peggy Dorris) , chose to underwrite the project. And soon, it came to fruition.
