Hi, I wonder if you could help me. I have a relative who died 31.8.2015 – Eileen Mary Loveridge and the Bowral Newspaper states: Followed by internment at Bowral Cemetery. Her husband was Ken Loveridge and I can’t find his date of death but he predeceased her. She was age 91. I wondered if they are buried in your ‘new’ cemetery. Or if you have a way of find out for me where their grave is. They are long time residents of Bowral.
Thank you for your time.
Judy.

The “…we shall all be reunited with our loved ones…”. Really ? As comforting as it sounds. No one has ever returned to report whether this is the case.

My semi-humorous reference to the 400 silver shekels will be readily understood by anyone perusing the Torah portion of next week where Abraham pays that amount to Ephron, chief of the Hittite tribe, for the Cave and field of Machpelah in Hebron in order to bury his wife Sarah. Incidentally here is a proof from the Bible cherished by 35% of the world’s population and acknowledged by a further 21% that the Cave of the Patriarchs (like Josph’s Tomb in Shechem and of course the Temple Mount, both similarly legally acquired) belongs to our nation!
