You have written all of these stories for your descendants – they are truly a gift. Bless you for all you do for your mother and your family.

What a smart thing for you all to do for your mother, there was much thought and planning, not something done in haste. I especially liked your "loving memories last forever." Also, I hope we don't see the stone for a very long time.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4333078797879411990.post-46713614231545274242010-12-03T13:22:36.425-05:002010-12-03T13:22:36.425-05:00This had to have been a stressful task on your par...This had to have been a stressful task on your part. Even so, I did have to laugh about your comment: "I wonder if this will cause confusion for descendants 100 years from now?"

Lucky for us, the people we dealt with were my high-school classmates and they were very understanding. Not an easy process, but worth taking the time for. You did the right thing - it is definitely better to do these things in advance.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4333078797879411990.post-6844740589977698512010-11-30T18:58:36.684-05:002010-11-30T18:58:36.684-05:00This touched my heart -- a gift of love, and with...This touched my heart -- a gift of love, and with all the planning time to make sure that it is right.

Thank you so much for sharing the trials and tribulations of finding a burial place and agreeing on a marker with us. It's awful to have to think of something appropriate and meaningful while you are grieving. With all this business completed, you can rest easy and really enjoy your Mom!<br /><br />Reginakinfolknewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158769794139676663noreply@blogger.com
