One of DIHS’ many behind the scenes but vitally important projects is cleaning up, preserving, and protecting historic local cemeteries here on Daniel Island and up the Cainhoy Peninsula.
The cemetery cleanup effort is led by Dick Porter whose committee includes Kim Sermersheim, Jude Wagoner, Hugh Haynsworth and Diane Lesko.
Take a look at the pictures below showing efforts at DI’s Simmons Cemetery this summer.
