They don't place them over the head area any more.... They place a concrete slab across the dirt area and the marker goes on top of that. We are hoping the dirt settles soon...please let it rain!!! The head stone has been chosen and paid for..or should I say it was donated by a prominate area businessman who contacted the family and said he wanted to do this as long as we didn't tell who....
This is such a blessing!!! Family has been trying to come together, searching for $$$$, as headstones or gravemarkers are NOT cheap.
Mostly, I haven't been talking because I don't want to burden anyone with my grief and feelings.

You could never be a burden to anyone! You might check with the office of the folks who manage the cemetery. Sometimes decorations are removed to facilitate caretaking - sad to say.
