cenotaph: \'sen-ə-,taf\ - (from Greek - empty tomb). a tomb or monument erected in honor of a person or group of persons whose remains are elsewhere.
Vicksburg honors the past, and has done so for over 100 years. Every state that sent men to war in this lovely town has erected a monument.
I love finding these memorials as I drive and walk and run around town. I will try and keep a camera ready so that as I find a new one, I can record it, and maybe learn a little more about my new home town.
