Why were the tombstones dumped in the river? Greedy developers desecrate a Cemetery to build a Kwik-E-Mart? Unclaimed Tombstones used to stabilize the riverbank? Gotta be a story here…
20,000 tombstones! I did a little research. After about 100 years, the cemetery full, (now no more profits even for maintenance)the peaceful beautiful surroundings of the site had been engulfed surrounded by unappealing landscape. So in need of a parking lot, the condemned cemetery was given up. The buried were unearthed and placed in a mass grave and all markers were recycled for seawall rubble. I for one, would think this is unfair to the families who paid for these family plots. Put yourself in this spot of looking for your family.

The theme for today’s RBION is ill-timed. This should appear near Halloween!

Those tombstones should be recycled. If only I can find one that says Pen E. Guin

instead of throwing the rice balls to the dead, they should feed the poor of the living

Do any of the spirits manage to eat any part of any rice ball before it lands?

The real question is how many Delawarians (Delawarites? Deles?) Delawarovians?) have been dumped in the river by the mafia.

Another good reason why I want to be cremated and not buried.
