Title: FRANZ EMIL FORSBERG death certificate
Creator: Department of Health. Office of Vital Records and Statistics
Creation Date: 1943-01-28
Description: This is a death certificate for FRANZ EMIL FORSBERG who died 28 January 1943 in Salt Lake
County, Utah
Subjects: Death--Proof and certification--Utah.
Your tombstone stands neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled out on polished, marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who care. It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist. You died and I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you in flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our heart contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled those many years ago.
Spreads out among the ones you left who would have loved you so.
I wonder as you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot and come to visit you.
