What is recorded here
In County Galway, a cemetery holds the dead while waiting for its own story to be told. The stones may be plain or broken, but the people beneath them lived fully, loved fiercely, and belonged to that soil. Their names have faded from human memory, yet the land still remembers every life it swallowed.
