so... i have been fuming for quite some time over something that i wanted desperately to change. so i tried - and succeeded! we had dramas with the headstone on my grandfathers grave - only my grandma's details were displayed, because the company my parents chose to add the extra inscription (unfortunately at my recommendation) stuffed us around and allowed the grant on the grave to expire, leaving us stranded with a unfinished headstone.
my grandfather and i were so close, and i was so upset knowing that the headstone would remain incomplete, to me it was almost as if he and grandma weren't together until their names were. so i decided that i wasn't going to give up that easily. a few weeks ago, after numerous phone calls, i wrote a letter to the cemetery board as a final attempt before i gave up, and today... my parents got a letter in reply. blah blah blah-blah blah blah blah yes!! oh my gosh! it's happening! i am so excited to know that i did it! i made a difference and got there, because i refused to give up.
the best things come to those who do!
