Death is a sad but inevitable part of life. A gravestone marks the earthly remains of the departed with a brief message recording their passing with, if space permits, a note from the grieving family. All that to sum up the life and times of a person. Seems very inadequate. In the future of course…
The south side of Cork City as seen from Shandon Bells during the pre-iba09 photowalk a few months back. If you look carefully you can see The Elysian off in the distance.
