I think I'm going to put up a memorial in the hospital room where my grandmother died.

I think this may have been the story that prompted me to ask:
http://www.annarbor.com/news/mystery...tims-re-built/ clearly the relatives had differing opinions. Apparently the girls in this case died beause they weren't wearing seatbelts. A memorial to stupidity. They should add a seatbelt to it. I don't think I'd like a memorial to a relative of mine left there indefinitely, especially not the type with stuffed animals ..I find it unnecessarily morbid and somewhat distasteful. But that's just me. Imaging in a celeb chose to kill themselves on the public highway in front of your house. you'd be plagued by mouldy stuffed animals forever. Unless they got in the way of the mowing. |

Tomes can be so cruel sometimes!

There was a memorial half a block down from me- commemorating the spot of a mans murder. I feel bad for the family and it was tastefully done. But on the flip-side...This dispels any illusion I might have had about being safe in my neighborhood. What it really means is that the neighborhood might be livable as a rental, but don't even think of buying there. It's on quite a lovely backroad until you imagine a murderer behind every lovely tree in the orchard.

BTW, I think the actual answer is --- one year seems like a reasonable memorial period. Put it up after the demise, take it down on the anniversary.
