Georgia students help restore historic Alabama Cemetery

Students from The Stonehaven School in Marietta returned to North Alabama from Nov. 5-6 to help restore historic Cornelius Cemetery in Huntsville. The two-day community service project continued a partnership that brought Stonehaven students to Madison County in 2025 for restoration work at Gray Cemetery. Working alongside the Tennessee Valley Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution, the Madison County Cemetery Restoration Authority and Ted Urquhart of the Alabama Cemetery Preservation Alliance, the students helped preserve an important piece of local history. The restoration effort included rebuilding sections of the cemetery’s historic stone wall, straightening displaced headstones, removing debris, cutting overgrown vegetation and clearing the cemetery’s northern grounds. During work breaks, TVCSAR member Kenneth Carpenter shared the cemetery’s history and information about individuals buried there. Chapter President Lawrence Hillis also provided a living-history presentation, wearing a Revolutionary War-era uniform and demonstrating proper musket handling. The chapter thanked Melissa Hobson, Dean of School Life at The Stonehaven School, for organizing the trip, along with adult chaperones Buddy Kelly, Chuck Rickman, Heather Wilkinson and Hannah Hanbury. “We were so excited to work with such a great group of students who worked hard, were very disciplined and displayed a great deal of

Pet of the Week: Boss just wants someone to spend time with

CULLMAN, Ala. – Time in the yard is one of Boss’ favorite parts of the day, especially when someone he knows is there with him. Shelter life has been hard on this easygoing dog and a familiar face brings him comfort. Boss, The Cullman Tribune Pet of the Week, is a Feist mix who is about 4 years old. He has a low energy level and a fondness for a little goat cheese now and then. More than a treat, though, what Boss wants is time with his person. For someone who enjoys quiet company, a visit with Boss at the Cullman County Animal Shelter could start with a simple question for the staff: could you spend a little time together in his favorite spot? Boss’ adoption fee is $130 and includes neutering, vaccinations and microchipping. Visit the Cullman County Animal Shelter at 935 Convent Road NE. The shelter is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Contact the shelter at 256-734-5448 or cullmananimalshelter@co.cullman.al.us . Has Boss already been adopted? Don’t worry! Many more pets are waiting for their forever homes, and your perfect companion may be among them.
