When Mom passed away back in August, she requested a direct cremation with no services. She didn't care what happened to her remains, and after some deliberation, the ashes were divided among family members. (Yes, I know it's a little bizarre, but then again, what about my family isn't?) Anyway, my brother and sister-in-law (Todd & Melissa) live on a beautiful piece of land near the river. They chose this spot to bury their portion of the cremains and to place flowers and a memorial stone. I haven't been out to see it yet, but hope to be able to make it back over there when the weather is nicer. Todd & Melissa were married on this same property, but Mom was too ill to attend.
Mom always loved water, trees, and nature. She spent hours every day just gazing out her window at the lake in her own backyard. I really think they did a fabulous job of picking out the perfect spot that Mom would have loved...
Rest in Peace, Mom. Not a day goes by without missing you.
