MY grandma brought my elder brother and I up. She died 14 years ago and we buried her as per her wishes in the same plot as her nephew.
The church even then was in a relative wilderness. I passed it on my scoot recently and went in to pay my respects to my Uncle and Nana. I hadn't been since the funeral so I was shocked to discover that the gravestone made no mention of my Nana and it was in a pretty bad way. Someone older than me was supposed to have taken care of that.
I took a photo of the gravestone and contacted several places regarding having the gravestone restored and an additional inscription carved into it. The people doing the work advised me earlier in the week they had finished it.
Went today to view it and whilst I am happy that it now shows my Nana's details the restoration of the original inscription doesn't seem great to me given that the cost is circa £500.
I am picky - but it doesn't look anywhere near as good as I was hoping - nothing ever seems to go right and I now feel i did the wrong thing trying to do the right thing.
