My guess is that these 20 obituary memorials were paid
for by the family, and eventually will go away. Any
cemetery that has only 20 burials in almost a year and
a half isn't going to be in business very long, and
Evergreen-Washelli is a pretty good sided cemetery
even if it is in the middle of North Seattle.

Haven't heard of anyone in Portland considering it,
but it looks like another way to make some money.
