And miss Rosie, how are you doing. I'm good this morning. 6 00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:21.879 Thank you. We're going to talk about White Rose Cemetery and we've got 7 00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:25.800 a big celebration coming up, don't we Yes, we do. We're excited. 8 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:31.600 We're looking forward to this to our beautiful mausoleum will be a hundred years 9 00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:36.079 old on July the eleventh, which is a Tuesday, So we're having a 10 00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:41.240 program on July the eighth, on a Saturday, to commemorate this birthday. 11 00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:44.200 Now I understand this is going to be a pretty good things to do with 12 00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:49.159 an awning and the whole yea. The entrance to the mausoleum is going to 13 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:54.200 be our stage because we're going to have a three people that re enact three 14 00:00:54.280 --> 00:01:00.880 people that are interred entombed in the mausoleum. One of them is a grand 15 00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:04.239 his grandfather's in there, one of his great great grandfather's in there, and 16 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:11.079 one of them, her mother and when her daughter's granddaughter are going to re 17 00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:17.400 enact her. So I'm excited that I got to that. I number one 18 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:19.560 that I thought of it. You know, it was just an I was 19 00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:26.000 searching for some kind of program and we've been doing mausoleum stories for several years, 20 00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:32.200 and I thought, why not get someone that's entombed in there, And 21 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:37.719 luckily I knew somebody that was related. So it all came to pass. 22 00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:42.159 Now, is this a ticketed event? A ticketed event yet? No, 23 00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:46.120 it's free. Okay, please come, oh love, that makes it even 24 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.120 better. But I mean, it's a great celebration. It's a wonderful piece 25 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.640 that we have it. That's a part of our history right here. And 26 00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:57.319 bar oh. Yes, there were people that were interred in the cemetery and 27 00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:01.200 when the mausoleum was finishing, they took him out and put and wanted to 28 00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:07.239 be in the mausoleum. So it's we have people that are in there that 29 00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:12.879 have been dead longer than the mausoleum was around. It's interesting. You know, 30 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.400 a lot of people got to see the mausoleum inside, maybe for the 31 00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:21.000 first time during our Memorial Day because it rained and we had to take it 32 00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:27.800 in true and it's beautiful. It's all white marble and it's just lovely. 33 00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.919 We're very proud of it. It's one of the prettiest ones I think in 34 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:37.319 this general area. Now. When the idea came up for this about one 35 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:42.439 hundred years ago, you know out east they've had mausoleums, and uh, 36 00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:46.879 you know here we are in Oklahoma and the barely estate and like, well, 37 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.680 maybe we should get one of these. So I guess the townspeople just 38 00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.680 kind of put it together and decided let's do it. Yeah, a gentleman 39 00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.800 by the name of ce Bryant was the one that came up with the idea, 40 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:05.120 okay, and and he one of his friends or colleagues, was Hugh 41 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:10.280 Bryant, also called Sunny Jim Bryant, and he's the one that, as 42 00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:16.840 I understand it, financed it nice so uh and I he is interred in 43 00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:22.360 entombed in the mausoleum also. Anyway, they worked together in it. It 44 00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:27.000 all happened well and we're happy. And we're going to find out more about 45 00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.800 this on July eighth, that's right, with the re enactors, and we're 46 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:32.159 gonna hear the little bit of the history. We're gonna know a little bit 47 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:38.319 about the people who are entombed there. And this is really going to be 48 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:43.800 a nice I really think, a really nice event. And once again, 49 00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.400 what time are we going to kick this off. It's going to be at 50 00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:53.280 ten am on Saturday the eighth. It's going to be outside. We are 51 00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:59.919 going to have a canopy out in front of the mausoleum, because I anticipate 52 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.439 it's going to be plenty warm. Even at ten am. We're already getting 53 00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:10.080 plenty warm and it's just shoe lot, I mean June. So we will 54 00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:15.280 have canopies and we will have chairs. You're welcome to bring your folding chair 55 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.959 if you like, or one of the other kind of chairs, and bring 56 00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:24.680 your umbrella whatever. And I want to say too that I'm going to keep 57 00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:28.680 it. We're going to try to keep it less than an hour, maybe 58 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:34.439 forty five minutes because of the anticipated heat. Very good. This is going 59 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:39.000 to be a very nice celebration once against the eighth, and that Saturday, 60 00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:42.839 it'll be at ten am and it'll be at White Rose Cemetery. It's the 61 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.759 mausoleum as we celebrate the one hundred years a bit being a part of our 62 00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:49.839 community. Now you're on the board, you've been on the board for a 63 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:55.360 little bit. Well, I've been on the board now for less than a 64 00:04:55.439 --> 00:05:00.839 year, but I was on the board back in nineteen eighty nine, ninety 65 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:04.920 eight, I think for two terms, which is the limit. And then 66 00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:11.040 I got off of it and I just decided that I this is something that's 67 00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:15.680 here and dear to me because my parents are in there, and I had 68 00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:17.560 a sister that was born before. I mean, she's in there. My 69 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:21.639 grandparents are in there, so you know, it's it's very close to my 70 00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:26.399 heart. You're very attached to it. Yes, Yes, this is great 71 00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:30.040 and I want everybody who can possibly make it to make it because not only 72 00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:34.360 is it a nice remembrance, but it's also a great education. Yes, 73 00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.639 and if people want to find out more, do you have a Facebook page 74 00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:45.079 or something like that on the social media.
