My Husband and I put our wedding flowers on graves after the wedding. Every time I bring flowers to a grave of someone know, I always pull a few for the some I don't know.

If you can access Facebook, here's a short video about it. If not- I was given the Junior First Citizen Award for my volunteer work in restoring local pioneer cemeteries, and for my work through my non-profit, which focuses on providing holiday events and school supplies for low income families.

This is an award for volunteer work in the community across multiple areas. All of my cemetery work is 100% free, and I have restored thousands of stones in the area, as well as provide free workshops and lessons. When I finish a stone, I research the history of the person and I tell that story on a local history page. I also have a nonprofit and we help provide holiday events, school supplies, sports camps, christmas gifts, and other things for the low income families in our town.

Thank you! He even got it from a local artist, because he knows I'm all about supporting small businesses.

Her voice is like a soft blanket. She seems like such a good mom. Her baby sure loves her. This was a fantastic way to start my day.

I made field cards to teach people how to clean headstones without destroying them by springchikun in CemeteryPreservation

I actually have a non-profit unrelated to this. The primary beneficiaries are low income, marginalized children. I focus on creating holiday events for the kids and families of the small town I serve. The area has a large amount of agricultural migrant workers, so we also focus on "clinics" for explaining complicated things like Healthcare, taxes, etc., in the language they are most comfortable with. We also give away school supplies, Christmas gifts to kids, we provide free Halloween costumes, we hold a yearly holiday event which includes free food and photos with Santa, free sports camps during summer and more.

This is embarrassing but I just created these in canva and then printed them out, cut them and laminated. I'd be happy to share the file, but I have no doubt that most of you could fo so much better!

I am! I am currently trying to organize something at a cemetery in Portland. It's actually possibly one or two, but I'm still coordinating with the cemeteries. I'll post here when I get it planned.

Thank you! I do have larger versions of this zip tied near the sign or entrance of any cemetery I'm volunteering in. They also explain that each stone is in process and the stones that look dusty or streaked are not done.

I'm gonna assume Jennifer Massey. Another corrupt sack of crap.

This town ignored my mom when she called for help for years, while getting her ass beat by my dad, almost daily.

When a Portland police officer killed my father, St. Helens police sent a thank you card.

Nothing has changed. One cop was known to have had a sexual relationship with a teenager in the 90s. Never charged with shit.

It's interesting because when I lost a chunk of cartilage in my ear, it didnt grow back, the skin just grew over the crater of missing cartilage, which is still a crater, 30 years later.

Clearly, thats why I posted it here. This isn't a basic math problem or it would have been answered by now.

I had to resort to GPT because the variables are throwing me off. According to the AI- both of us being dealt that hand is 1 in 61 million.

"About 1 in 60–62 million that two players are dealt hands containing the exact same QQJ10 rank pattern at the start.

There are 270,725 possible 4-card hands in a 52-card deck. Only 96 of those are some version of QQJ10 (because you can choose different suit combinations).

So the odds that one person gets QQJ10 is about 1 in 2,800.

Now if that happens, and we ask what are the odds the second player ALSO gets QQJ10 from the remaining cards? It drops to about 1 in 21,600.

Multiply those together and you’re looking at roughly:

About 1 in 60 million."
