I shall play Klezmer and say Kaddish for you!
Initially I was apt to think you might have posted this...

Damn it, can't the man keep his restless soul still, wandering around like bloody Marley's ghost!"
My necessaries are embark'd: farewell. Adieu! I have too grieved a heart to take a tedious leave.

Re: Lost Cemeteries
I find the old cemeteries that one finds outside old village churches and the like in Britain, fascinating. The history that one finds in such places, is a revelation to South African abecedarians like me!
Talking about South Africa it is sad to see how neglected some historical cemeteries are there these days, usually left thus out of a mixture of spite and the general neglect or incompetence of the regime there. Places like this cemetery in Kimberley for example.
