Jennifer, this may sound daft but I am serious. Tell my grandma what happened - she and I are beholden to you and your son now - and if she can she will protect him. Anne

A few weeks ago my son took his little boy (only 4) to visit my Mum's grave, - she died earlier this year. My grandson accidently walked across another grassed over grave. Jon very gently told his son off, explaining that it was unacceptable to tread on someone's else resting place. I am so sorry that the thoughtless action of some people, who don't know how to behave, has caused you further pain. But, as you say, your son knows you put them there for him. Take care of yourself Jennifer. Christine

It is good to hear that there are still people out there that teach their children respect.

There really are some nasty people around. There has been a spate of this in Gloucester, anything that will sell at a car boot sale was taken, little cherubs, angels etc. And they never seem to catch them. Instead of putting more there for them to take why not have a nice photo of him framed and arrange some little ornaments in front of it especially for him. he will know you have done this and they will be safe in your home.

Oh Jennifer, that is terrible,more than that, it's despicable. There are some mindless/heartless people around.They will get their comeuppence eventually, one day their conscience will bother them, + they will have to live with the knowledge of the dreadful thing they have done. I know we should try to understand why they do these things but it is very difficult....Sometimes I think we are just too soft on these vandals. I wish you well in leaving a note for the return of the items. It may well prick the conscience of somebody. I hope it's a small comfort to you to know that there are a lot of people on here who are thinking about you + wishing you well. Take care Regards Ann x

To Everyone Who as replied to Jennifer: Jennifer as asked me to Thank You All for your lovely messages of comfort. Jennifer is unable to answer you due to the loss of her membership and family tree. Jennifer is devastated as she had over a years work on her tree and for some reason she has lost her membership? Do not understand why or how, but it all just disappeared and Jennifer can no longer access Genes Reunited? So Thank You Everyone from Jennifer. Friend Janice x
