    Gracelawn Memorial Park and Affiliated Funeral Director - Committal Service May 16, 2026

    On May 16, 2026, my spouse of 16 years was interred at Gracelawn Memorial Park. The decedent passed in my presence. Due to documented intrafamily conflict and reasonable apprehension for my personal safety, I chose not to be physically present at the graveside. I observed from a separate location on the cemetery grounds to ensure my emotional being was protected. I parked at my daughter’s grave after placing a red rose. I walked to a safe location, dropping red roses on other graves along the way. Some dated back to 1939. I spoke their names out of respect.
