150 Years Later, Lindenwood Cemetery Keeps Traditions of Education, Celebration Thriving

Nov. 2nd is All Souls' Day and is a holiday that commemorates the departed.  Cemeteries are frequented on such days to mourn and remember  and aren't typically viewed as places to go for a walk, host a 5k, or take a field trip.  

But that's not the case at Lindenwood Cemetery in Fort Wayne.  WBOI's Katy Anderson met with the cemetery's general manager, Tom Pehlke, to talk about the history of this landmark and its place in the community.
