Jack, this is beautiful! I’ve always found it heart-wrenching to see graves that are so old that even those who remembered the person buried within are long gone. It’s a strong reminder of one’s own mortality. I try my best to take very good care of my family members’ graves, but the day will come when I’m buried beside them and we’ll all be forgotten — it’s very humbling.
