Very interesting. Thank you for submitting this information.

Interesting, yes...but I'm still partial to "See, I told you I was sick"

hal, i checked out that website last night. totally awesome! i work at a cemetery and funeral home here in oregon, and love all of the personalization done to grave markers. my favorite reads; 'she was a bud that lately flowered.'

I just returned from a long weekend trip to Boston, and one of my favorite things was taking a side trip off the Freedom Trail though the old colonial grave yards. Those old stones, tilted at various angles, were quite the sight.



Best of all, was drinking a frosty Sam Adams whilst looking across the street from the tavern at THE frosty Sam Adams.

I once took a Girl Scout troop of fourth, fifth and sixth graders to the lovely cemetery in Bozeman. I took them to the children's section, where the stones are close together because the graves are smaller, and showed them the empty shoes and sleeping lambs. I freaked those poor kids out.

I love a good cemetery. Can hardly resist a nice old one. They are educational and entertaining.
