Cemetery Law (In the Green Mountain State)

Deborah L. Markowitz, the Vermont Secretary of State, and her staff have a healthy (!) sense of humor. Check out their publication Digging Deep: Unearthing the Mysteries of Burial and Cemetery Law (2007). Chapter One is titled "Of Grave Concern." And it continues from there (should I say it goes downhill?)

Clearly written, helpful information, nice sketches that provide a touch of whimsy. Just the sort of thing good public servants produce for their constituents. Well done, Ms. Markowitz, who's a graduate of Georgetown Law. (I note she's running for Governor of Vermont, and I'm agnostic on her candidacy. I'm just saying...).
