JohninKansas,

I tried to sign on but was asked some perosnal questions like


1 - What political Party" best represents my ideas.

2 - How many children do I have etc.etc.

Did anyone else get these questions ?.

Why would they be pertinent to the topic ?.

I am in Canada, but when I go home to Ireland I always visit the graves of my parents and the gravesite is the only "CONNECTION" I still have with them.
Not everyone can do something significant in this life by which they are known and remembered, for many a gravestone is the only thing to show that they were here.
I do have one area that I disagree with when it comes to funerals etc, and that is the use of expensive and often scarce wood used for the coffins, we can still respect our dead and give them an honourable send-off without sacrificing our trees. Other than that I think gravesites are hallowed ground and should be maintained,preserved, and respected.
