Rossiter: Brother's marker relocated - again
Charles L. Hagood already was at Derrell Clark's house when I pulled into the driveway.
Hagood, the only living child of the late Rev. D.L. and Edna Hagood, visited the spot in Clark's garden where he'd planted the memorial marker bringing us together.

It's unclear what happened to the marker after the infant Hagood was moved to Westview in 1979. There would've been no need to transfer his original stone, because the Atlanta cemetery requires markers in that section be made with bronze materials.

I nosed my way in from there. Neither man seemed to mind as we compared notes in Clark's living room. They knew I wanted to write about the journey somehow.
Of course, Hagood had been surprised by it all, beginning with Clark's call explaining his unusu
