Through a line in a newspaper obituary we had long believed that Francis Quirk was buried at Laurel Hill Cemetery in Saco, Maine. However, we were unable to confirm that in our searches through gravestone sites and cemetery directories.
We also had heard apocryphal stories surrounding his actual internment that left us a bit uncertain to what actually transpired.
However, a relative has graciously provided this photo of Francis and Anna Quirk's tombstone at Laurel Hill Cemetery in Saco, Maine.
The Latin(?) phrase below "Ars longa vita brevist est" did not translate well in google translate, so we would welcome feedback from our erudite readership as to the actual meaning.
