“I feel for them but there comes a time when you have to let go and move on.”
Several miles from my house, on the main road into town, there’s a 10’x10’ shrine to a dead boy. The family maintains it and adds and subtracts toys, flags, etc. It is unattractive and on public property. But it’s been there at least 10 years. I think the prevailing attitude is “fine.” Nobody, apparently, has complained. The road maintenance guys have to go around it, but that’s the extent of impact as far as public cost.
I feel for the people who really should let this tragedy go and move on.
Such a shrine, if it was made necessary by careless driving or drunk driving, can be useful to get people to think. Watch what you do with that car or truck, because you might extinguish a little life.
