Preservationists from Woodlawn Cemetery are attempting to save the grounds' most unique mosaic.
A glass mosaic made by Tiffany in the middle of the cemetery is beginning to fall apart. The mosaic shows an angel guiding a woman to heaven. The preservationists want to restore it to its original 1914 appearance.
After decades of being exposed to the elements, bits and pieces of the mosaic are missing.
