Dignity in Death

Click on top pic to see slideshow










Last week...due to my favorite reporters patients the newspaper feel into an amazing story. Apparently when someone dies and there is nobody (and I mean nobody) to claim the body then it falls onto the sheriff of that particular town's shoulders to dispose of the remains. Well last January David Smith, of Altavista, Va., died and nobody ever claimed him. Well last Thursday the Campbell County Sheriff's office spread his ashes at the scatter garden at the Avoca Center....they allowed us to come along. The whole thing takes about two minutes but we decided to make it a slide show anyway.
