"Our fathers find their graves in our short memories, and sadly tell us how we may be buried in our survivors...The greater part must be content to be as though they had not been, to be found in the register of God, not in the record of man." - Urn Burial, Sir Thomas Browne, as quoted in The History of Lieutenant Nicholas Stillwell, by John E. Stillwell, M.D.
