That was fantastic, thanks for posting. One thing I really loved about it was what was missing: there was no explicit attempt to make a point or to assert a universal truth; it was just the facts of what happened and take it as you will.

Glad to see an emotional family event that doesn't try following the latest social-media trends or societal norms in general. Instead the people involved just figured out what's important to them and did just that

What a great read. Thanks for sharing. It had honestly never crossed my mind that you didn't need to use an official cemetery to bury someone.

Possibly related but the funeral industry could probably use some innovation, typical caskets seem very expensive compared to simpler pine caskets
