    Sweet, tragic yes, but also absurd, comical and ridiculous. It does raise the question of what is or should be ‘sacred’ though.

    According to this link the faiths are the other way round and the graves are actually in their respective religions sections of the same cemetry. http://www.arnobrosi.com/c/cemphoto53.html
