Marker Inscription
The cemetery is located at 1801 Nancy Lee (Lea) Street just east of Pecan. The street runs in a ½ circle West of Pecan and the street signs are spelled differently at each end. One end of the circle then continues on east of Pecan and runs behind Legacy Ridge Country Club. Just as you reach the west edge of the country club property (about ¼ mile), there is an open gate sporting the address number on your left. Although the drive appears to end on the Google map, you can drive all the way up to the cemetery.
