Cemetery Folk Expressions

I don't think it matters whether you find them tasteful or not, but I beleive that decoration of gravesites in cemeteries is one of the most natural exhibitions of folk expression. However, some people get riled up by this, as evidenced by this (fairly) recent article from the Boston Globe.

I plead guilty to doing this myself; I left a picture of my father holding my daughter at his burial site, along with the requisite flowers.
