Irish Dirt:
I first saw this item at a National Funeral Director’s Convention and brought a bag home for my Dad. My Mother, Anita, died in March of 2007. She was so proud of her Irish heritage, and my dad enjoyed the symbolic gesture of providing her with a piece of her homeland.
In August of 2010 my Dad, Bill, was reunited with his wife in heaven. Their children now continue to leave a little bit of Ireland whenever we visit their grave-site.
