Community members will gather on Friday at 10 a.m. for a Memorial service at the forgotten and found Historic Glen Arbor Cemetery on Forest Haven Road.

A ground-penetrating radar project was completed last summer to find where all of the bodies are buried. Last fall, Don Lewis, township treasure and construction business owner for over 50 years donated a few pallets of Wisconsin rocks to be used as headstones for the many unmarked graves that were initially marked with a flag.

β€œIt was fun, my wife and I pecked away at it, as much as we could on Saturdays... It was fun and sort of connected me to the project. I appreciate what was done.”
