In September of 2002, I made a personal visit to this cemetery which is operated by the Wittack-Lewis Funeral Home. They could find no record of a funeral for Kenneth Volkl so they were unable to tell me where in the cemetery I could locate his grave site. I don't know if their records were just incomplete or missing, or if Kenneth Volkl is actually buried elsewhere. I suspect that I have received erroneous information and that he is actually buried at a different cemetery. Amazingly, a volunteer in 2011 located the grave and created the following memorial page: Find A Grave Memorial #78069935 ---------------------------------------------------- 5 Kenneth married Neva M.
