ioof cemetery once there we found two maintenance workers one of whom indicated that great grandpa mark was buried in a certain section but that he did not know the exact spot without checking the records in the cemetery office with a 180 degree sweeping motion of his arm he indicated where we should start looking this was a huge area i hopped out of the car and my sister with the aid of one of the workers started up and down the rows of graves instead i headed out on foot angling across with no sense of where i was headed or even if there would be a headstone to mark the grave i walked at a steady pace for a few minutes until i felt the sudden urge to stop looking down at that spot not 6 inches from my foot was the small flat headstone of my great grandfather ahira mark collins i firmly believe he guided me straight to his grave obituary the dalles weekly chronicle 14 oct 1939 page 2 the dalles wasco county oregon mark collins 80 resident of tygh valley for 52 years died yesterday at
