The hospital told my parents that because he was born dead they could not name him and they would bury him in an unmarked grave at the cemetery. I remember putting flowers on 2 graves every memorial day as a child growing up. Mom made 1 blue & 1 pink, there were 2 unmarked graves. Dad had gone to the cemetery later in the day after my brother was born, there were 2 fresh graves. A cemetery worker told him there had been a been a boy & girl infant buried that day.
The pic I have posted is of an unmarked grave in baby land of the cemetery, just to the right of the Angel Monument. This is where I remember putting the flowers, when we would visit the cemetery.
