How to find the Frisinger Grave Site

Their web site says the graves are in area 7 block 75 but actually in block 87 in the corner between the University Hospital and the Arboretum near the special flower garden on the edge of the arboretum.
The address of the cemetery is:  415 South Observatory Ann Arbor MI

This is a picture of the grave site from the road below the plot.  The road between areas 87 and 85. The circled stone is the main Frisinger stone.  If you drive along that road, you will see a flight of stairs going up towards the graves.  It is about 6 stairs. There is an old large house visible through the fence. Park there and walk up the staircase then continue up and slightly to the left looking for the grave sight. If you get to a small gravel road, you have gone a little to far. 

Pam (Frisinger) MacKinnon is the last grandchild of Rolla and Destina residing in Ann Arbor proper. She is the daughter of Frank Frisinger. One other, George Paul Frisinger resides in Washtenaw County.  He is the son of George Paul Frisinger.  In the late 1950s,  there were 3 children and about 9 grand children in the city and an additional child and 3 grand children in the county.

Pam is the primary person looking after the graves.  She sees this as a long term commitment as she and her husband Tom own the adjoining grave site and expect to be buried there.

This picture showing the building in the background should also aid in finding the grave.
