Yes!!! When I go to yard sales I pick up silk flowers and when I go to
cemeteries I look for the "old" section where people seldom leave flowers
and place them there. I know they were loved by someone....

Subject: [NV-CEM] Memorial Day - Lonely Graves
For those of you who are visiting the cemeteries and graves of your
loved ones, your ancestors this weekend and have a few extra flowers,
think of placing them on one of the lonely graves which are never
visited. Or, if you are living in an area where you have no one,
think of visiting a cemetery and placing flowers by one of these lonely
graves.
I live in Logan Utah and tomorrow I will be visiting several local
cemeteries and will be placing flowers on graves. Over the past years I
have adopted these graves, these people and I hope that someone out
there is doing the same for my loved ones.
This is the day to remember those who came before us, who forged the
paths that we now walk.
