Hear Duane tell it

Harris County, Texas

Duane's take

Here's how the official marker tells it, and here's how Duane's gonna tell it right back to you. Now, some stories come at you fast, and some come at you quiet, like a wind you almost didn't notice. The Dawson Lunnon Cemetery is one of the quiet ones.

Established in 1915, out here in Harris County, this ground has been holdin' its place for over a century now, patient as only a cemetery can be. It was designated a Historic Texas Cemetery in 2009, which is the state's way of sayin' what the land already knew: some places earn their permanence. Not every story needs a dozen names and a battle to matter.

Sometimes the story is the ground itself, still standing, still remembered, still here.
