Infinity Markers: A universal marker signifying the place someone has died inadvertently.

by TROY E. MASON (santacruzbg04 [at] gmail.com)
I have invented a universal headstone/marker to be placed at the site of a person's last breath of life. This marker would display, the name, birthdate death date and city/ country of origin and a photograph of the deceased upon a stainless steel placque with 2 9" crystal's joined at the base with an infinity symbol through both crystals.

I have endured numerous deaths of friends and family who have no grave, no ashes & no memorial of there lives or passing from this world. I believe people worldwide would be agreeable to having a place marker of their loved ones passing that they could visit to pay respects, say goodbye, absolve some of their grief. This is a humanitarian idea to respect the living and the deceased. I have no funding for this project but I'm trying to figure out how to make this happen and generate support to create a foundation that would honor people who have lost their lives prematurely in car accidents or from overdose, exposure or any untoward deaths of innocents.

So many of the impoverished are coerced and abused into addiction and trauma because the houses and unhoused prey upon the poor who have no protection or support from our civilization and they deserve to be remembered as we all matter and their loss is a terrible tragedy for all mankind. Just as our wildlife creatures can go extinct, people are unique and everyone is a singularity of life and color. All lives matter, and this is a opportunity to get people to care more for our less fortunate brothers and sisters who have lost their lives. My foundation would secure the site for an Infinity marker and nobody will forget the life that was lost on that very spot.
