Joshua Juda
::Very interesting cemetery in terms of architecture, gravestones and mausoleums. Well kept grounds and amazing number of friendly deer walking around. Not to mention the graves...some very elaborate of many famous former Pittsburgh residents reside there now.

::Within This "HISTORIC CEMETERY" are MEMBERS of My Family. My Dad has MEMBERS of his FAMILY that are "LAID TO REST" here. My Mom's OLDEST Brother, Along w/ His WIFE are ALSO Here. My Dad's BROTHERS are also "LAID TO REST" Here in the "HISTORIC MILITARY SECTION of the "ALLEGHENY CEMETERY". This CEMETERY is CONSIDERED to be 1 of the MOST BEAUTIFUL PIECES of LAND Within the City Limits of PITTSBURGH. MANY DISTINGUISHED FAMILIES have MEMBERS that are "RESTING IN PEACE here. I used to RIDE MY BIKE thru "ALLEGHENY CEMETERY" on WARM & SUNNY Days w/ Friends. Going Downhill from the PENN AVENUE Entrance to the BUTLER STREET Exit was NICE, but the RIDE UPHILL was sometimes EXHAUSTING. Evening WALKS in the FALL were ENJOYABLE until the CHANGE in DAYLIGHTS SAVINGS TIME & It would get DARKER & thoughts of "GEORGE ROMERO'S ZOMBIES" Scared the LIVING BEJEEBERS Out Of Us.

::I love this place. It's great for photography and for looking for Georgian/Victorian/Edwardian era mourning symbolism. I just wish they'd open the gates when it is posted that they will because I like to go here the mornings before work. As for the review about deer hunting, you are not allowed to harm any of the animals here. You will be arrested if you try and it's not funny to joke about. Things are looked after closely here though there is enough peace for solace. Please do not litter. Eben Byers' mausoleum seems to be a target for this. Thanks for reading.
