Cemetery Stones for Mom

My dear Uncle, Ralph Ned Dodge, who passed at 92, was a very faithful cemetery visitor. One day, he complained to me that someone was putting stones on my mother’s (his sister’s) grave. He didn’t see them on other graves and could not understand the vandalism. He was very relieved when told that those stones each represented a visit from someone who was Jewish. I think it is a lovely tradition. He did, too.
