I'm not sure if you all knew this, but Bob's ashes are buried under the
cement that his memorial stone is standing on.  They simply dug a hole
under the side of the cement platform and the ashes were inserted.  The
stone is under an awning, which is why it's difficult to get a clear
picture.  The memorial service was nice and several of us (including Justin
McBride and I) got to speak, but it was storming and raining pretty hard at
the time.  Luckily the awning covered us. Maybe it was a sign that Bob was
watching us celebrate him!
