Cemeteries in Parking Lots

Roadside Resort offers a collection of cemeteries located in parking lots: patches of grass in seas of asphalt. I believe in every case the cemetery predates the parking lot. The graves simply had the misfortune of being surrounded by strip malls.

Is this going to be the latest addition to new Wal Mart super stores?

I suppose that's one way of achieving immortality. Walmart shoppers through the end of time will know your name (because your headstone marks their favorite parking spot).
