I had written about these dumpster ROSES in the past. Saw them again -- around the same time as last year's sighting -- and this time have gotten clarity:
WHAT: Red roses with a bag of gummy snacks WHERE: Our HOA's dumpster area WHO: The memorial card says a young man named Michael had died in April 2015 (cause unknown to me). WHY: I can only guess as to why this spot was chosen. I could be way off -- (1) he may have once been a lifeguard at the subdivision's pool which is a mere few feet away, and within sight of the area. Did it hold good memories for him of long-ago Summers? (2) a cul de sac full of homes abutts the spot. What if one of the homes on the street was where he lived? His family can then discreetly see the people walking by the items, and observe their various reactions to the make-shift memorial to their loved one.
This death, plus recent news on other young men's deaths have grieved my heart.
