Whoever heard of a cemetery that inscribes the deceased's name on a wall after cremeation but does not allow the scattering of ashes? Only 15 years ago we scattered my mother's ashes here, and engraved her name on the Winter Wall. Only 3 families are immortalized on this wall.

As we approached, I noticed almost every grave seemed to ...

The Northeast Lions Club, of which I'm a member, goes out 1 day per month to deliver for Meals on Wheels...our local chapter is called "Dinner Bell". We deliver hot meals....low sodium...when requested..meals to the elderly, handicapped, and shut-ins. Often short volunteers...our 1 day a month may turn into 3-6 days per month. There are a few reasons I like this cause...1) it takes just an hour out of my day at lunch. 2) It's helping those in MY neig...
