In Lucknow, as in other parts of the world, graves mean little to some people, but a search on the internet proves otherwise! What one will find on this blog isn't even 'a drop in the vast ocean' of tears that would have been shed if it were possible to calculate. The names, the sad poetry, quotes and expression of grief of the loved ones all being ground to dust.
"...We always say that the history of a parish is in its graveyards..." Passage West (from a blog and book by Jim Murphy)

I used to know Mr McGrath well when I was a student in Lucknow in the early 1990s. He lived behind Hotel Carlton and was a former merchant navy sailor. His younger daughter Sharon was a friend of mine. I think she's in Dubai now.
