Hello there. My name is Asia Charity and I am 23 years old from
Philadelphia, PA. My father passed away around 12 years ago. He and my
mother were estranged from the time I was about a year old and I only saw
him about 5 times in my life that I can remember. I spent the first half of
my life, a tomboy who wanted a dad, making it my goal to one day go and find
him and make up for lost time, so when I found out he had passed away, I was
crushed to say the least. I had something to say to him, but I never would.
Now all I could do was visit his grave....but where was he buried?? So since
then I've been on a quest to find his final resting place...all I want to do
is visit my dads grave. I have crawled through thousands of websites and
every Obituary site there is...there is absoluetely no info anywhere! Today
was his birthday and someone had told me he was buried in Eden cemetary, but
after driving all over the nasty parts of west philadelphia trying to find
the place, the office told us there was nobody there by his name! I dont
know if anyone can help me here but I figured it wont hurt to try. His name
was Larry Charity (NOT Lawrence or Laurence..just Larry) of African American
descent. If anyone can point me in a better direction even...it would be
appreciated. Thanks for your time.
Asia
