Bio

I have always loved cemeteries. They are like libraries of people and past lives.I have been to many all over the world and each one is unique in it's own way.From a little country churchyard to Bonaventure in Savannah or Pere La Chaise in Paris,cemeteries are one of the most enigmatic places anyone can visit.My husband realized how true this was when we went to Paris and I insisted on seeing Jim Morrison's grave. People were all over the cemetery, not only for Jim,but for Molliere and Oscar Wilde and Proust and Gertrude Stein.Some were sitting on benches eating a sandwich enjoying the trees and the birds. Unfortunately not everyone understands how much more a cemetery really is than just a place to bury the dead, but I'm glad all of you do.
