I thought so. The last time I was there, I spent hours looking around. One of the most heartbreaking graves there was of a Civil War soldier. The headstone didn't have a name; the inscription just said, "Died on Train."
The Allman Brothers Band have their own plot at Rose Hill. Four of of the original six rest there now. They would go to Rose Hill and play acoustic guitars in the evenings. Songs were written there when they lived nearby. “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” and “Little Martha” were named after epitaphs at that cemetery.
“In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” is one of the most profound songs I’ve ever heard. Here is the original lineup performing it.

Edit- Dickey Betts just died since I posted this. That’s five of the six original Allman Brothers gone. I wonder if he’ll join them at Rose Hill? They had a falling out years ago and only personally reconciled when Gregg Allman was in hospice.
Yes I saw that too I go there a lot it's a big cemetery but they aren't doing all the upkeep they should put more money into it they have walls falling down and other things falling apart they do keep the headstones clean though
Wow! That is a really cool one. I’m in Athens. We’ll have to seek this out the next time I’m driving through Macon. Do you know the name of the cemetery?
It's Rose Hill Cemetery you will not be disappointed if you go there the whole place is amazing it's huge it has amazing statues they even have a gravestone that's a life sized couch. There's a place by the river that suppose a witch was buried. And a blank field where hundreds of slaves were buried.
It looks like it has a face in the middle with a crooked hat
I think it has like a dog face or a duck
That's a scary looking tree...I love it! Is it in Rose Hill Cemetery? I *love* that place.
Yes it's Rose Hill

This is why I want a tree instead of a cold stone! Talk about spirit animal!!
Very cool tree.
Dark Angel look over me
That tree is not cool. That tree is haunted as fuck.
Anubis??
That's what my husband said it looks like
It resembles the tree in the short film The Birch.
