<DIV><FONT size=2>`Any graves over a certain age you have to get special
permission due to the diseases that can be released. As for the attitude
of people In can relate to everyones displeasure. Last year it tooknumerouscalls
to get my uncle to sign for permission too cremate my aunt's remains. Washington
requires for permission to cremate. It entails a spouse, children or
brothers and sisters to give written permission. Even when the deceased
requested cremation. This year it took a lot of begging to get some of my
brothers and sisters to sign a release so our mother could be cremated.
Some would rather let the body set in storage for howeverlong. So I appreciate
the problems of ffinding grave yards. My family has three different
locations for my grandmother in one cemetary she died in 1920
or21.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I remember as teenager back in the early 50s when they build Folsom Dam
and Lake near me. They spent days just removing all of the known graves from
the valley and putting them all together at a new site with the remains and
the stones. It was quite a job and the new cemetery is quite big but the
relatives can still go and see there ancestors and that's what its all
about. I don't know when we took this terrible attitude toward the dead but
I think we need to do all we can to see that Oregon gets new laws that
protect them. It should flat out be against the law to desecrate a grave or
move it without the permission of the descendants and or a court order and
then they should only be moved not just plowed under and forgot.</DIV>
