Where is your grave?<br />Me? That is a delicate subject w/ Hubby and I. While we are both Donors, we have a difference of opinions about what to do with our "remains". I refuse to have a $20,000.00 funeral & burial. In fact the thought of being buried is one I can not fathom. I want to be cremated, in a $200 cardboard box not a $2000 pine box, or $10,000 casket. No Funeral Homes for me with there high prices! I dealt with that before and think they are a rip off. A little Life celebration is fine, but rent a hall not a funeral home. Also, I do not want my ashes to be in a mausoleum, or in the ground... which leaves us a problem since Sergio does. I think I can agree to the Crematation gardens at many cemeteries. And a tiny mausoleum, would be agreeable in there... but...ewe. Can't I just be tossed in the ocean like Grandma & Grandpa Texas?janishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18424946398926069813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-56903991405004493592011-03-24T20:39:29.731-04:002011-03-24T20:39:29.731-04:00Hey janis,

OOOOOOOLD trees and unmanicured. The ghosts love walking around in them!<br /><br />I heard about the hail. My Sissy lives in Hamilton Co and they had golf ball sized hail.<br /><br />Cindy BeeBee Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15818958787610823509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-75377499229285149392011-03-24T17:36:13.958-04:002011-03-24T17:36:13.958-04:00I like the mixed title and message very original!

I think ya need to be comfy.<br /><br />I have a friend that has a grave yard in his side yard I’m out on that!<br /><br />As to hail we had freaking snow this morning, I’m going to the beach!Mark Pressleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08833937799719658726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-55785103988589655442011-03-24T14:30:03.452-04:002011-03-24T14:30:03.452-04:00We have a couple of scary like cemeteries around h...We have a couple of scary like cemeteries around here.

So much, as you know, I walk through one during my lunchtime walks (for the past 3 years). I'm fascinated by all of the same things you mention and I think it's great that you're involved in this helpful project. <br /><br />Love, LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03241010459789159870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-31817057699304001222011-03-24T08:10:19.784-04:002011-03-24T08:10:19.784-04:00I seem to be the family historian/genealogist so I...I seem to be the family historian/genealogist so I've walked several cemeteries. I love visiting them. It is my chance to "meet" these relatives who may have died a generation before I was even born. The hunt is exciting, but it always seems the relative whose grave I most want to find is the one with the missing stone, or acid rain and lichens have rendered the stone unreadable. My one problem with cremation is that I lose a grave to find and visit. A few times I have had to rely on the kindness of others like you who go out and find and photograph graves. So thanks for being one of those people who give their time to help other researchers or family members.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08354263970813874412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-9062525817327523362011-03-24T07:56:52.680-04:002011-03-24T07:56:52.680-04:00When me and my daughter were working on our famil...When me and my daughter were working on our family tree, we had people take pictures for us from South Dakota. I think it's great that there are people who can do this. When you can't always get out of state to look for ones in your family tree, I always thought it would be nice to do this. It’s nice that you try to help others out.<br />Your old friend, Leedopenbrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10586477115749852398noreply@blogger.com
