Jennie and Dianne share three captivating stories of headstones found in unusual places and how they were restored to the cemeteries where they belong. They begin with the story of a WWII veteran's headstone discovered in a backyard in St. Petersburg, Florida. Next they journey to Pennsylvania to visit the oldest narrow gauge railroad in the U.S.; East Broad Top Railroad's mission to return a Civil War hero's gravestone after 118 years results in a touching family reunion. And finally, they unveil the remarkable restoration of a woman's headstone, once discarded near a dumpster, far from the cemetery where she was laid to rest. Tune in for these Ordinary Extraordinary stories of current generations restoring peace and dignity to those in the past.
