The Garfield Monument

This is a picture of the coffins of President Garfield and his wife, kept forever from the damages of time. Just one of the many people that have died making sure these amendments are not taken from us. This picture was taken from within the Garfield Monument in Lakewood Cemetary that is located in Cleveland, Ohio.
