Date taken : 2003
Description :
Large tombstone belonging to Judge Leslie Emmett Given and his late wife Bessie Via Given. The graves of their two infant children are to the left front of the tombstone I believe. I remember visiting Aunt Bess on the day she died in 1980, at the old Statts Hospital here in Charleston. I told her "Jesus is with you Aunt Bess." As soon as my dad and I returned home. We got a call from the hospital that Aunt Bess had died. My father, Judge Given's nephew, who was named after him, always said that Uncle Emmett would of been embarrassed that his wife had bought such a large tall tombstone for them.
