Help needed for grave decorations
 
Letter to the Editor:
     For about 10 years on Memorial Day, my husband, daughter and I have put artificial flowers on graves dating 1905 and older in the Hampton Cemetery. We began because most of those graves are never decorated, and that’s just sad.
     Each year after Memorial Day we collect the flowers and reuse them as much as possible the next year. We would like someone or a group to take over this tradition, or at least help us do it in the future.
     It doesn’t take very long, nor does it require a large group of people. Please contact me if you’re interested.
