Thanks, Jen. I guess many cultures, like the Egyptians, used to bury the beloved objects with the dead, but it may be the first time I've seen it in a Christian culture, so extensively. Carved little teddies put with babies, and footballs, horses, motorcycles…

Add me to the list of cemetery-lovers. My kids and I always play a game of finding the oldest marker, as this fascinates us. But I live the Irish way of marking the grave with the most loved thing. Cemeteries tell so many stories.

Thanks so much. I have loved graveyards since I was a little girl, but have never yet met anyone who shared my fascination!

I love taking pictures, and I often go to the various cemeteries in my area.
