Quote from: Steve on January 19, 2015, 06:17:18 PMHe was put in the same hole as his wife.......so the grave already had a concrete surround and headstone....The hole was plenty big enough but the entrance was too short - the only was we could get him in (I had the feet - good tip Mr. Darwin Sir) was to tip him up 45 degrees and lower him feet first...It was during the prayers that I realised I didn't have enough rope on my side - it was all on the other side... so as soon as they finished I had to pull another few feet over - otherwise i may well have ended up in the hole with them both....Overall, it was mercifully quick.....
