Do you decorate your father's grave for Christmas?

My father is buried in this huge cemetery:

We always used to but no one lives near where he's buried anymore!

No.

I am thinking of putting something Chistmassy on it. It's going to be the first Christmas without him.

Yes, the first Christmas is always hard. Decorating the gravsite will make you feel that you are still sharing Christmas with him in some small way!

Before my father passed away we helped him get a marker for his father's grave. I'm glad we did that.

I never have. I don't know if I have the right... He was closer to others in the family tbh. I think it's a lovely idea, though.

I couldn't decorate my father's grave if I wanted to, but it gets decorated every Christmas.
