Vander Vlucht in Lucas Cemetery

Vander Vlucht (or Vandervlucht) is a fairly prevalent name in the Lucas area. What fascinated me is the different monument styles represented by just this one family in an otherwise typical rural cemetery in northern Michigan. From the traditional small lamb atop a small stone representing a child's grave (and in this case three lambs and three children) to a fairly typical upright stone to a highly personalized and stylized monument.
