Dan,
Yes, if we move we'll have to deal with that. Thanks for your thoughts. The
marker would go with us, we'll decide if the bones also go if/when we reach
that point.

with the others, we had her remains cremated, which are now in a small cherry
wood box that I made for her.
We like the idea of cremation rather than internment, as it allows us to kee

of portland and equal part of of hydrated lime. To this I added a

My condolences on the passing of your friend.
You might try using a mortar mix with white sand. Check with your local
