Christmas came early for Lane Street Project! John Kirk Barnes of downtown Wilson’s The Kirk’s Flowers surprised me with an incredible gift this week. Thanks to his generosity, in January, Wright Brothers Lawn Care of Goldsboro will undertake professional removal of large overgrowth in Odd Fellows Cemetery. Josiah Wright’s expertise and equipment will move us further and faster than ever toward opening up the interior of Odd Fellows Cemetery.

I am deeply grateful to John for this gift to Lane Street Project, for his enthusiasm for our work, and for his vision for ways we can honor those who lie in these historic cemeteries. If you have floral or landscaping needs in Wilson or Wayne Counties, please support those who support us by considering The Kirk’s or Wright Brothers for the work.

Now to cross the rest of the items off our wish list!!
