My family and I visited Utah last week. It was our first time back in 9 years. While we were there, my inlaws took us to the cemetery to show us their headstone. It's actually in the cemetery with their names and kid's names, etc. No one is buried yet, they're both in their early 70s. Their birthdates are there and obviously they'll have to add the date of death later.
I've heard of pre-planning your funeral. I've even heard of picking out your headstone. But I've never known anyone to actually have it set up in their cemetery plot before they're dead. They don't have any family buried there already, they're just ready I guess. Is this an old people thing that I just don't know about? Is it a Mormon thing? A Utah thing? Maybe they're just crazy. It seems odd.
