#PersonalNote

Both of my parents have been gone for over a decade now, and both were very clear that they didn’t want a grave marker or other “pointless” memorial.

I understand and support their choice, and of course honored their wishes. But it always bothered me a little that I have no place to “visit” to remember them.

I got the idea recently to sponsor benches in parks that we frequented. I think they’d approve.

If you happen by one, take a moment to relax on their behalf.
