Teresa had mother and dad's ashes. When Teresa died, I then had all of the ashes in our home. I had a great desire to find a good place to bury them. For some reason scattering the ashes didn't appeal to me. I talked to Clarissa and Kelly about burying them out in their field. We have had such wonderful times as a family at the Summer's, and having the ashes buried there was very comforting. They gave us permission to do this.

On May 21, Don and I went out to the Summer's. Clarissa showed us where she thought would be a good place. Don had his shovel and began to dig a hole. We then placed mom, dad's and Teresa's ashes in the ground and covered them up. It was a very sacred experience for us. Don then dedicated this spot as a special place to remember those that we loved so much.

Don and I felt so good about burying the ashes in such a beautiful and special place.

As we were talking to Clarissa before we left, Don said "look". There were 2 deer between us and the buried ashes. The deer both looked up and it was like an omen that what we did was met with approval. It was a very special experience and one we will remember.
