Why are coins left on the Donnelly tombstone?
Many people who visit the Donnelly gravesite have noticed coins left behind on the headstone. Apparently, legend has it that if you leave a coin on the Donnelly tombstone and make a wish, the Donnellys will grant that wish. So, the next time you visit the Donnelly gravesite, don’t forget to place a coin on the tombstone, and make a wish. It just might come true! Update: We received an e-mail from someone who read a book about myths and superstitions, and they said… another reason for leaving coins on a tombstone is… if a ghost is haunting you, or if you owed someone money before they died, the ghost will collect it, if you place the money on the tombstone before midnight.
