Level ground, wide sky, and rows that ask to be met square — the grounds of White County Memorial Garden are mowed the way they were laid out. Lawn care here means holding the grass at an even height, trimming close around every marker, and edging the drives that run through the property. Southern Illinois spring comes early and green, and by the first warm weekend people are out walking the rows in Carmi sunshine. It matters that the place looks tended when they arrive. Quiet work, done for people who notice it without ever saying so.
