Of all the dead from the Titanic, 169 of them are buried in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. 121 of those are in Fairview Lawn Cemetery, a non-denominational cemetery run by the Parks Department of the Halifax Regional Municipality. The graves form the design of a ship's bow.
Of 2,223 passengers 1,517 died, and most of those were behind a locked gate in third class. Hundreds if not thousands of families were destroyed and devastated. Of 899 crew members, 685 of them died.
Deathternity talks about all things death related. There are 1 million+ owned graves in cemeteries in America that people will not use. Cemeteries do not buy graves back. I would encourage people to begin thinking about either selling or buying these graves at a deep discount to what your cemetery charges. Or you can donate unused graves for a tax deduction. If I can help you with this please contact me here, email me at deathternity@gmail.com, or call me at 215-341-8745. My fees vary.
