Helen, it was nice hearing from you. If you stay here on SCJM, I
hope you will be able to learn a lot. Just ignore the bickering.

Thank you so very much Moshe. =A0Here is the cemetary:

Wow, that is some site. It brought many tears to my eyes. I can see
that they were very helpful to you. My question was simply where the
cemetary was located. The answer is Toronto Ontario. But the site is
a treasure trove of information and advice. We shouldn't need it.

Thanks Moshe, they are wonderful people.
Whenever I see people visit their loved one's grave, I notice they
leave a small stone on top of the headstone. I don't know the
meaning, but thought it was something I should do, so whenever I visit
my father's gravesite I take a small stone and leave it on top of his
headstone. What is the meaning of this custom?

I imagine thay would be able to tell you. AFAIk, it is a sign of
respect. It shows that someone has been to the grave, that is is not
neglected.

Thanks so much.

You're very welcome.
