More Mt. Hope Cemetary
This monument was erected by the Circus Fans of America honoring some of the Circus Workers over the years. Jess Adkins is buried to the right of this tree. To the left about 200 feet is Bert Bowers and Art and Grace Johns.
I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.
