what about them

Have you ever thought of what happens after you die? Well for most of you its the average who's gonna pay for the funeral, where am i going to be buried, will i be buried or cremated? But what happens to your grave site after the fact of the burial? Will your family look after it, or will they just jet it lie just as they have for your other relatives? For most of us we don't tend to look past our death, we do everything but look beyond death... So why is this so important to me? Because today i realized that after I'm dead and gone, and after my immediate family has past my grave will be open for the tacking...... Not in the sense that someone will actually take my headstone, but that someday i will probably be dug up for some new development, townhouses, a golf coarse, or even a park........ Today I went to one of the oldest cemeteries around me and found headstones in a pile, trees cut down, and the ground dug up.... I'm wondering were the families are to these people, and why are they being treated this way? Most people will probably buy new headstones for their relatives, but what about those who have no family? Are they never going to be heard of or seen again? And why cant we save the headstones? Why must they be thrown away?

well that's it for now ill have more later....

what they are doing to those graves is SO wrong... unjustifiable! How is the Will County Historical Society allowing this to be done this way? Have you notified Nancy Bruce-Crilly yet?
