⁰⁰⁰⁰ Dear Year 4000, We the people of 2009 hereby leave our mark! The messages we leave on these granite stones are from people all over this Earth. This is our human story in our own words, not just the words of our leaders or wealthiest or historians. We firmly plant ourselves here in history on these stone faces!

⁰⁰⁰⁰ Thank you to my parents, Helen Rose Walleck and George Dealey Edwards. - Anthony Van Vechten Edwards
