| Urn in the niche |
We gathered with my sister and her family this weekend to place my mom's urn in the niche at the cemetery. It was quite heavy with the ashes. A deacon said some prayers which moved us to tears. Then my sister placed the urn in its niche. They will make a name plate which will be inserted into the niche and will be ready in 12 weeks. That seems like a long time. But we will return to check that all is in order.
Afterwards we went out for a meal together. It has been an exhausting few weeks and it is time to move on and forward. Mom will be 'forever loved and always in our hearts' as the name plate will say.
