Robert E. Bookhout was my great great grandfather. I have done extensive family history on him including a privacy and information request to obtain his patient file, which I received uncensored. I was aware of his burial there and was taken to the 'area' that he was interred, on a visit to the grounds in the late 1990's, but this is the first time I have found an accurate mapping of the cemetery.
It was a very moving moment to find him on your list. Finally he is not lost to us.
You have no idea how much this means to me.
Is the future of the cemetery in limbo?
I have heard news that they are closing the facility.
Also, have you a contact name/ number of someone that is overseeing the cemetery and/or may have more information that is accessible? I have long wondered why he was buried there rather than here on the island where his family is buried.
Thank you for your time,
Pam

Hello Pam, I have been doing research for some time on the Woodlands Memorial Garden as a doctoral student at Simon Fraser University. I would be happy to share further information, and would love to know more about your journey. Please feel free to contact me on this thread- Pat Feindel.
