[AT] funny..

[John Hall]

Not to worry Charle, I enjoyed the laugh!!! As long as it went to the right 
list is the important part!!!

Back to cemeteries. I have heard of more than one record of church 
cemeteries that were kept up and being used that didn't keep good records. 
The church my dad goes to has one gravesite with only a rock for a 
headstone. There is a grave marker laying beside the building---been there 
for at least 20 years--noone knows where the person was buried. My church 
closed its cemetery a few years back. I don't think any formal records were 
kept and the graves weren't laid off in rows very well so they decided to 
call it full.
