You have to wonder what is a memorial going to do for missing children. What would be the point when money is needed for other things such as counseling for mother's who are overwhelmed with the responsibility of raising a child. I guess they think by building a memorial some mother at the end of her rope will look at it and say..."Oh yes, now I get it. Everything has become perfectly clear to me." And, hey....$600,000 would have built a fine memorial or maybe helped a number of mothers who needed that counseling or one particular mother who had lost their child and just needed a computer so she could keep in touch with her soulmates. I think most of that money went to the latter. jmo

Hi LambChop. I agree with you. Now I dont know much about things like this but I wouldnt want a Memorial for my child unless I knew he/she was dead. I've never heard of a living memorial. Now I live a quiet life (to put it mildly) so I may have missed out. I also think it is terrible that CA & GA couldnt have bought a measly park bench and put it in a park where she played. 600.00 and they couldnt even buy a bench? Our cemetery is adding on to the Mausoleums they have. (my children and husband are in there) yes we spent our retirement money, I didnt want them in the dirt~just a private thing.When they are finished constructing I will place a Christmas tree on the lawn with permission of course. My Joey loved Christmas. We had our baby girl moved from a different cemetery. I love my kids sooooo Nore.
