It will not be an official cemetery. The first one in was my horse when he passed suddenly. We also have three family dogs out there. I imagine most folks would not want to be planted next to Muttly but it suites me fine.

Hey, if I ended up there, it could be truly said that I ended up going to the dogs!

(Hope that was appropriate humor considering the topic)

Mourning is for those who are left, and a time of grieving is so necessary for those still alive, and dealing with the loss of a loved one. I'm sure your mother wouldn't mind a memorial service... she was probably thinking of the $$$ and wouldn't mind a bit that you had a service in her honor to grieve and remember her by.

I do agree that I think this is a good thing that you are doing. The question will be if the government will allow it (they seem to have issues with bodies buried on private property). However this being Texas, I really do not see any problems occurring from this.
