While some have called me trash, I don't agree with them.
Generalizing comes to mind when I hear that.
Having said that, one of my pet peeves is seeing someone using their car as a memorial to a deceased person.
That and putting an ad in the obituaries on the anniversary of their death.
Dear Bonehead, it's been a year since you passed, etc...."
They get the paper in the afterlife? Never crossed my mind.
As far as roadside memorials go, there was a girl a couple of years ago, who was visiting the site of her friends death, and got run over. There are a hazard that should not be allowed. Unfortunately, the state allows it here and actually will sell you a plaque.
Whatever happened to visiting the grave site? Why the place they died?
Had they passed in a bathroom, would they have a memorial in a restaurant?
We passed one a few weeks ago that was so adorned with balloons that my friend asked" where's the party?" in the middle of the hwy.
to roadside memorials.
