I buried a friend on his property. It would have been illegal except that his wife had been buried there years earlier making the property a legal burial site. The spot was in a small aspen grove making getting any machinery in impossible without destroying the setting, so we dug the grave by hand. Digging a grave by hand for a friend is quite cathartic. I recommend it if you ever get the chance.
