How often do you visit?

I do not make it to the cemetery very often. There can be a certain value in reflecting upon one's mortality and remembering loved ones lost. However, I have never been particularly and terribly close to anyone who has passed.

We get once a year usually since our family cometary is out of state. My mom would love to be able to go more but with the way things are and prices fluctuate it is a luxury we cannot afford right now.

I definitely believe I should visit my father's grave more often. I only the grave about once a year. It is where most of our family is buried, so I really should make it a point. He is buried in a different town than I live, but I get pretty close to there at least 5 or 6 times a year. It wouldn't be that far away. I guess I really should make the effort to drive that extra few miles more often. Thanks for starting this discussion. You have given me a lot to think about. Hope you have a great day!

I take my kids to the cemetary to my fathers grave on Fathers Day and on Memorial Day. I don't like going there because he is in a moseleum and it smells very funny in there. My kids like going, so I really should take them more often. Last time we went my kids each brought my dad a little gift and put it in with his flowers. One put a fruit roll up in there and the other put a penny in. I am going to be interested to see if they are still in the vase when we go back.

I can't even remember the last time I visited a cemetery at all. I guess I really should go more often since I cannot remember when the last time I went is.

When i was in Philippines we always visit my grandfather's grave more often, it's every sunday after the church if we have time. But when i moved in Uk,since i arrived here i can't visit his grave, maybe wen i having a vacation sometimes but he is always in my heart. Happy posting.
