Standing over a pair of graves in Ross Bay Cemetery, Gregory Cupka faces a dilemma. On the right a clean clear path commemorating a death is written out in stone. To the left a similar stone is almost completely obscured by mossy growth and stains. The clear distinction between the two - one he cleaned and the other remains untouched - are why they're perfect to demonstrate the work he helps with as a volunteer with the Old Cemetery Society. But he really wants to clean the one on the left.
