One day, we'll be visiting cemeteries together!
Zombiequeen, an hour is not that far away. My FS is about that. I recommend getting some flowers for that grave, and making a point of visiting when you can and keeping the grave tidy. You'll be surprised how rewarding it is.
There's definitely a spiritual aspect to it. There is a graveyard 5 minutes walk from here, but I haven't found a grave there that I 'connect' with like I have with FS. It's a pity she's not closer, but in a way, it makes my visits to her all the more special.
