Alone in the Crypt

While photographing the mausoleums in Mount Olivet Cemetery, I stopped at the Clement mausoleum. Something felt off. There was space for six, yet only one name was etched inside. Half-empty mausoleums always make me wonder what happened to the rest of the family. Why didn’t they join their loved one in death? When I started researching Victor M. Clement, I had no idea how fascinating his life would turn out to be.
