“At Fresh Kills, soil erosion is causing bones and other distressing evidence to be pushed to the surface. Wind and rain whip the dump, exposing shoes, watches, credit cards and jewelery.”

It’s going to happen. It’s not intentional that they did not find this sooner when it was buried. I wish folks would understand this instead of lashing out at others still angry over their loss.

I understand this somewhat. My son was hit by a car and killed last year. It wasn't until a week or so later when we retrieved his personal effects that we found his glasses were not among them. I imagine if someone had the glasses, as damaged as they were likely to be, they decided we would not want them.

There is a desperate desire to gather every last thing that you can, because you know no more things will follow. I'd cherish his glasses, like I do his broken cell phone, to the very end of my days.

But people did the best they could. Decisions they made were designed to spare us pain, I'm sure. Some things you just have to decide to accept.
