I find a great deal of peace when I go there - or to any cemetery for that fact. The Swan Point Cemetery in Providence, RI is wonderful to walk around in, so quiet, beautiful, lovely headstones and mausoleums, flowers, trees, so so peaceful. There is one beautiful angel that I can go and sit at to "talk" to deceased relatives when I can't get out to the country. You can sit on the step and gaze up at this angel and feel so calm. People shouldn't be afraid of the dead....it's the living you must be aware of!!RetroSandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03148972559036739050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3215568693807799004.post-87334504951817534522012-08-05T22:37:55.321-07:002012-08-05T22:37:55.321-07:00I learned to "keyboard" on a typewriter ...I learned to "keyboard" on a typewriter and I was lousy at corrections.
