Yes, I do. I'm the only keeper in my family. The cemetery my parents are buried in has some pretty strict rules, but I actually like that. Twice a year I do a big trim, cleaning and cutting back around the stones. In between, I'll stop by often, with flowers, or just to say hi. Christmas I provide my own wreath. The cemetery is close by, and their graves are easily accessible. For my grand/great-grand parents, those cemeteries are a bit farther, so once a summer they get a good sprucing/trimming. I find the process very soothing and peaceful. My folks cemetery chimes the bells on the hour, and it is such a lovely sound.
