Tombstones on the Kansas Prairie: How to Use a Tripod in a Cemetery

The Douglas County, KS, Heritage Conservation Council presented "Tombstones on the Kansas Prairie: A Cemetery Conservation Workshop," May 17-18 in Lawrence. The goal was to train individuals in the correct procedures for cleaning tombstones, making minor repairs, and resetting small monuments. Corey Thomas of Pishny Restoration Services of Olathe, Kansas, led the workshop.

You should put the lifting strap around the top half of the stone you’re lifting so the stone doesn’t fall over as it’s lifted.
