The Graveyard Shift
ANGELS
"We shall find peace. We shall hear angels. We shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds."
--Anton Chekov

Some of the most beautiful statues found in cemeteries are those of angels.

They can range from small cherubs to larger than life archangels.

These agents of God represent rebirth, resurrection, protection, spirituality, judgment, wisdom, and mercy.

"He spake well who said that graves are the footprints of angels."
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free."
~Michelangelo
