Our first stop while in Hueytown was to Highland Memorial Gardens to visit the grave-site of the Allisons.
Davey's grave-site was the first one we came to. It was easy to find with the marble bench on the side of the road that read "In Loving Memory of Our Daddy" Robbie and Krista. Davey's grave was located just on the other side of the tree. It was said that Davey was buried in that section, closest to the woods because he loved nature and loved to hunt. 
By the way, that's my three red roses in Davey's arrangement.
Next we got back in the Explorer and headed to find the remaining of the Allisons' graves.
As we were driving down the lane, I was drawn to this stone tomb and we stopped to take a picture.
Once we reached the section of "Our Lady Of Lourdes", we knew we were close. A back-hoe driver apparently noticed my shirt and came over to offer to show us where the grave-sites were. Can you believe that the rest of the Allisons' are buried directly in front of that tomb? There we found the graves of Clifford, Miss Kittie, Bobby and Judy (although not deceased) and also an unmarked marker.
We decided to leave and head to find Neil Bonnett's grave-site. Before it got too dark.
