That's really lovely...jubal51394May 12 2007, 16:32:23 UTC
In this field you are miles ahead of me already. I still have Johanna's ashes here stashed in my bedroom. It's been 14 year and I still can't quite let them go. I have known since almost the beginning that I have a need for "a place to go" where I can feel close to her. We have moved around a lot since she died and I'm never quite sure that wherever I am located is where I will stay.
I'm about to pay off my mortgage here and your posts on this subject have stirred up my psyche, for which I thank you. I'm still not completely sure what I will do but I have a renewed sense that it IS time for me to DO SOMETHING... and that "here" is an OK place to do it.

I would not want to put my daughter in a place I wasn't going to be, either. I understand why you would want to keep her with you. I told my husband if he gets transferred, I am staying here, because I just could not leave Will's grave. Funny, I don't get a large feeling of being "close" to him when I am there, but I feel a sharp need to have a place to pay respect to him.

Thanks for that!
