☆My FindAGrave Contributions, Memorials, and On-line Edit suggestions/Interactions via this website are Always random & sporadic, but definitely accurate! No one wants false details regarding an Ancestor they just discovered, or the Family & Friends of a Loved one whose only solace might be to view a simple thing such as an Online memorial that can bring them joy, share the pain of the loss, but most importantly experience the lives of your elders in a whole new way!
Personally I love the idea of being the person who can contribute a burial location, or family photo, a tidbit of information that can connect the dots for people and get them interested about our elders & generations now since gone from our presence...
In fact I can speak from experience by watching my own families reactions when I discover new family lines, or even better a Famous Kin connection! The look of wonder a pride mixed with joy and in some ways a final fulfillment to stories they were told, or never knew of...
It's so important for our younger generations including myself to appreciate and respect all the men and women that made this country we live in today. It's your duty to show respect for our dead.

I'm always impressed at how much better collectively these same human beings were that existed just 100 or more years ago, compared to today's man or woman. Hell, I challenge anyone to ask 10 people if they could till their land, build their own house, Barns, fence, be like-minded enough to progress and advance their country in the present state, and strive to be better than the previous generation before... That being said, I will rightfully say that "They dont make em Today like they used to". Currently our world experience is completely upended with false flag operations being drummed up by people only set on making money, not friends or memories that last forever, or make good stories of moral value to tell your grandkids. Before I finish rambling, I just wanna say that I might only be in my 30's but I was raised right, and pride myself on being a Patriot. This world is beyond crazy these days and it's so hard to follow everything that happens now; It's so sad to know that we have been de-sensitized and predictively programmed to the point that we can't focus on our future lives or where we will end up before we die. Most importantly we have been robbed of our ability to even have an American Dream.
I will probably add more to my bio later, but for now I would like to also state I am more than willing you share any pictures, information, or Memorial transfers to anyone unless I am a direct descendant of said Memorial... in the grand scheme of things we as Americans all come from the same small number of families that first arrived her during the Jamestown & Plymouth days. It's a matter of who and where your family ties fit into the the genealogical puzzle.
