My father is in a nice graveyard in the country next to the Faihill Horse track
training center. Its tombstone time- nearing the setting of such.
As you folks know its not a happy time. My mother is upset because she has the idea in
her head it should go down one way. I don't have an issue with it. Here goes...
He is in the last row against a fence. This graveyard lays out the stone like this.
When you walk up to the stone- you come to it first- right in front of the grave. The whole row is lined up this way.
I prefer it this way because I'm not walking on your grave to see the stone or put flowers on it.
Okay!
Now she sees it like this. The stone is a head stone. The first thing you walk up to is the grave and the stone is in the back. It has her upset and I suspect its more with that than anything. But she has it in her head it has to be this way.
What is technically right in these situations?
My father was a simple hard working man of ultimate integrity.
A man of honor and quiet dignity. I want the best for him but I see my mothers point but
I also would not want people walking on his grave to reach the tombstone and he is the last of the row far left.
My mother has agreed to let this post decide. I bragged you guys up so please share your opinion with us!
Thank you!
