Unto each of us is the possibility that we will not live to see old age, and that is the story of many of the denizens of Multnomah Park. Take this handsome gentleman for example.
Our handsome friend was 26 years old at the moment of his untimely demise. According to the newspapers of the time, he was shot with a large caliber hand gun at point blank range in the chest by a man who was guarding a very large marijuana growing operation.
This man will stare into the heavens from the safety of his black granite headstone until the moss or the dirt or the angry transient or the ravages of time obscures him from our eyes; memories are like that.
