SAVANNAH, GA (WTOC) - Three months of hard work is paying off at the Bonaventure Cemetary.
The Bonaventure Historical Society held a rededication ceremony on Sunday for the John Walz Memorial Garden.
The 4,000 square foot garden features a new variety of 80 different plants.
Chairman Lee Maltenfort says, "well, it's a recognition, it's a quiet place, a peaceful place. In about a decade when everything is grown in fully, we should have a very nice shaded area."
The Bonaventure Historical Society is planning a fund raiser for a proper memorial for sculptor John Walz.
