laid to rest
Gran's funeral today. It was a very nice ceremony, in the cemetery. it was the first time i'd ever seen my stepfather's grave, because i was out of the country when he died and we are not generally a family of grave-visitors.
this cemetery is remarkable in that all of the markers are flush with the ground, with flower vases the only feature that sticks up. so many of them had flowers, some fake but many of them fresh. a lot of people must have come out to visit on sunday. i guess spring is a nice time for it.
afterwards we went to mom's house and lots of old friends and neighbors came by. everyone had a good time catching up.
