I stopped by Flower's grave on my way to a convention in Montreal, Quebec. We left Western New York early in the morning and arrived in Watertown, NY about 10:00 a.m. The cemetery was easy to find, but Flower's grave wasn't. It's a fairly large and still active cemetery and we had to go to the office to get a map. There was a very nice lady who helped us find our way. This was the first of 3 graves we looked for that day.
