Ben, I wasn’t sure if you were talking in terms of health issues or just needing to be closer to your son as time catches up with us. Remind me where you are here in central Florida? We just moved to Sorrento, Fl from Leesburg Fl, not far from Mt Dora, Apopka, etc, and just 35 mins from our son in Maitland (adjacent to Orlando) Sorrento is rural and quiet and we like it a lot.
I think it’s wise to do some things ahead of time, such as getting pre-approval from VA Cemeteries. It’s acknowledgement of the aging issue but also looking out for your family. The awful crash in DC this week certainly proves tomorrow is a luxury. I’m sure Tallahassee is a beautiful place, as is the location Dee described. Take care!
Randy, We are in DeLand and have often passed by Sorrento on SR 44 on our way to the Mason Jar restaurant in Dona Vista which is on route 19 North between Eustis and Umatilla. They have great Southern Fried Chicken and biscuits two or three days a week (Sundays for sure). We have not been there in four or five months, however. If you are interested, perhaps Marcy and I could meet you guys there for lunch or breakfast, or at another restaurant of your choosing. We'll be in Alabama for about a week. Best regards, Ben.
Thanks Randy, Ive been wondering about this myself and what the process might be. I would like my and my wifes ashes to go to Arlington which, from what information Ive been able to find, should be doable. Have you come across any information regarding that process? Hope all is well with you and yours.
Jack
