That's beautiful, and I love that the colors have meaning beyond their pretty hues as well.

It's beautiful. I wonder if it being colourful eliminates some of the creep factor that people have about cemeteries.

It looks like something you’d see in New Orleans. So cool!

How wonderful, I really love that.
I’m also loving the trend (where I live, anyway) to ask attendees at a funeral to wear colourful clothing instead of black; to me, it says “let’s remember the good things about this person, let’s show that we are glad we knew this person”. The colourful cemetery seems to say the same thing.

What a lovely cemetery.
It sure beats the heck out of the sea of plastic flowers in urns that many modern cemeteries have become.

Oh wow, that's beautiful! I’m also loving the trend (where I live, anyway) to ask attendees at a funeral to wear colourful clothing instead of black; to me, it says “let’s remember the good things about this person, let’s show that we are glad we knew this person”. Same here. I rarely wear black to funerals. Sometimes I ask if it's okay to wear something more colourful, and sometimes the funeral has a theme, such as football colours or the deceased's favourite colour etc. The only time I can remember wearing black in the last 30+ years is to my BBF's mum's funeral last year. I knew that culturally their funerals are far more formal, so I asked her if I needed to wear black, and she said I did. DSO wants people to wear Hawaiian shirts to his funeral! |
