The Chahta Tribe wanted to extend a heartfelt Thank You to the State officials of Louisiana who took the time to respond to the call of assistance due the cemetery being in such disrepair and neglect from the non caretakers previously to the point that some of the remains were coming out of their caskets and not resting in Peace. Now they can again find the tranquility and care forever with those who are the original inhabitants.
Chief Warhorse said as she explored the area from the ground level she then asked for aerial views and immediately was astounded by the heart shaped location. It was not only spiritually moving but a clear symbol of the love that those voices wanted to share as reciprocity.
