Hi Jackie, Thanks for the suggestion. I wonder how much they would want this time? :) I may do that, thank you for calling, I didn't want anyone else to incur long distance charges on my behalf. All of the cemeteries I have dealt within the south never ask for money. At first when I contacted one in New York by mail they did then when I called and got someone else they didn't ask for money.
