Finally Kutztown makes the news!

Interestingly enough, we have a problem with the engraving on the
Tombstones fading away.
Some of the graves are well over 200 years old and the thin stone
tablets are abraded by wind
and rain and you can barely read what is engraved on the stone.  So
much for stone as a
permanent record.
