"Sailors gravestone at Cardonald Cementery"

A review of Cardonald Cemetery by Egil Sulen written on Saturday 3rd of April 2010

Some won have asked:

"Can anyone give me some insight into the Sailors grave stones at this cemetery. I am very interested as to why they are there. I always understood sailors were always buried at sea.I would be most grateful for any information. Thank you "

My uncle Joakim Sulen was a Norwegian sailor from 1939 to he died in an car accident in Glasgow 1943.

After 65 years I was able to visit and find his grave in 2009. The grave was in good shape and I would like to get in contact with people how take care of thoose graves.Thanks in advance. You can also go to my home site http://www.sulo.no and look up Joakim in the left index. There are some pictures of the grave stone etc. You can take contact in e-mail address: sulo@sulo.no

Best regards
