I generally think cemeteries are silly but also think its important people walk through those particularly sad stones and can see in person how bad things were. You can stand there and imagine the pain that was going through the parents hearts 150 years ago in that very spot as the pastor was speaking. I'm don't claim any religion or been to church in 20 years but I imagine the only thing keeping those parents continuing to put one foot in front of the other was the hope one day they would be reunited with their children.
