Lamb on a Block

September 18, 2009. In the last several years I've started visiting the cemetaries where my ancestors are buried. I usually go with my mom and we water the urns that she and my sister have planted and placed. It has made me more attentive to displays of devotion to the creator and our attention to those that came before us and where their bodies now rest. Some of the inscriptions are heart breaking, others attest to a long life, with a strong family line.
