That's sad. All my family graves are in other parts of the country. My dad and his dad are in Derbyshire, my grandfather (my mother's dad) is in London. My mother's only brother, uncle George is in an unknown grave in Greece after being executed by the SS. My maternal grandfather's son, my great uncle Alex, was killed (age 19) on the Somme in France. He is buried there but I have visited his grave twice since I found where he was buried and laid wreaths even though he died more than 100 years ago. Lest We Forget.
By the way sorry for not commenting for ages, or posting. I'm still suffering from a painful shoulder and elbow and not typing will help it heal quicker - I hope. I will suffer after this comment 😮
