Joe, I"ll not (to use your words) "Lighten up a little bit, dude." I do not
have the time tell you this but you forgot to sign you note...
I did find it by openning the header....
As to how deep I buried my grandfather, do not be a smart ....., asss it
has nothing to do with the thieft of a coin or any other object placed on
or in a grave...

My Sister just passed away any I'm in a hurry to leave to be with the family

If you care to take this beyond, the fact that it sounds like you are in
support of "Grave Robbing" then please do so to me at my personel mail
box.. "" I'll be back in about 10 days..

And to the rest of the list "Sorry" but I get upset at any one that is
going to "Cemeteries", "Family Grave Yards", Church Grave Yards", or any
other "Burial Grounds" to look for objects of value there, and remove
them... for any reason...

Thanks,
Howard E. DeFord
