I love old cemeteries. I bet you felt something as you stood here? So often I do. Something I cannot describe.

Yes. Flowers for Mary. Makes a person wonder who she was.

I was to an old cemetery last summer and one grave had Pink Peonies in full bloom there. What a beautiful and special thing it was and I wondered if that was her favorite flower and her family planted it there. I bet it was.

These are the reasons I want to be buried and not cremated. To leave something of me behind if anyone cares to pay respects for my life. :) Even 100 years later.

Wonderful heart provoking image. Well done and framed, Debbie!!
