I've heard so many people say it is silly because the person is no longer there. But, I really enjoy putting flowers on my mothers grave for Mothers Day and other special occasions. Do you do this?

This is ok. Flowers represent beauty and life and would do well on a grave. Go ahead and show your respect.

Can anyone confirm where the dead really are? Still in the grave? In the new world? In between worlds? For certain things, we have to live without answers because it is not time yet for us to know those answers.

More importantly, one should shower more flowers more frequently to your love ones in their living years!

Fortunately my folks are still alive, we all belong to the Neptune Society and will have our ashes scattered in the ocean.

On the anniversary of my exhusband's brother's death, we used to take a trip to the ocean and drink a toast to him on the beach in his memory. I think taking the flowers to the grave is a nice tradition. Any sort of memorial on special days I think is great.

I believe in leaving flowers for a loved one at their resting place. Their body had died not their soul so I believe they know when your leaving the flowers.

Well, when my mama was living she wanted to keep flowers on daddy's grave. Now that she is gone too I did put winter flowers on them but I can't bring myself to go back there. I feel bad in a way but in another way, I know only thier tent or shell is in the grounds there, they are with God in heaven and I can talk to them all I want to anywhere I am.

Of course, this is the best gesture for somebody who pass in other world. This make me happy to go to my grandparents with flowers, is a noble gesture. A flower is a sign of apreciation, a sign of love, for alive persons and for death persons too.

Yes my family and I bring flowers to our parents' and other relatives' graves. We usually do during their birthdays, All Saints Day (Nov. 1st) and Christmas.
