Mom lived until she was 81. She wanted to be cremated and her ashes placed near her father and sister Blanche up in the Santa Catalina Mountains.
My first opportunity to place her ashes back in Tucson was in 2011 when I attended my nephew Christophers weddding. During my visit I drove up to Mt Lemmon and to the location over looking Tucson where my Grand father and aunts ashes were placed. To my surprise the road was widened near the spot I remembered placing their ashes. What should I now do with mom's?
I decided I wanted something special for my mom so I took her ashes back with me to Sandy Utah.
During the time Kassie and I lived at the Rosegate Apartments on the 4th floor facing Salt Lake City (now called the Cottages) I was surprised to see the expansion of the Sandy City Cemetery less than a block away.
Our apartment balcony had the best view of Sandy City Cemetery and almost daily I watched the expansion being made to the west end of the cemetery.
It wasn't long before I could see a cremation niche wall being built. My waiting for the perfect spot for my mothers ashed was taking shape right before my eyes.
Only God could provide me with the perfect place for my mom less than a year later. Thanks you Jesus.
During my time waiting for the cemetery expansion project to be finished (you can see our balcony in the picture above) I got busy planning what I wanted engraved on mom's niche face. In fact I blasted her finished stone myself after we moved to a house in Holladay. I still have some vintage Rayzist equipment and do my designing and blasting right in my large garage in beautiful Holladay Utah.
10/10/2021 After living in Utah for a total of eight years to be closer to our grandsons, Izzak, Lincoln and Cole (now all teenagers), Kassie and I decided to move back to the East Coast so we could spend more time with our daughter Noelle's family and our first Great grandson Holden. All living in Georgia. But on our way East we wanted to spend the winter in Florida. Naples and Fort Myers.
Our moving out of our (4 yr) Holladay Utah home was quite an undertaking, we were going to get rid of everything. More info on that adventure HERE.
