(2,600 posts)My in-laws are buried in Culpeper. Thats pretty much the last place that Id expect something like that to happen, although I guess every place it does happen says the same thing.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
