Yikes...
That's rough.
But, think of it as your brother interfering with the tribute. Of course, you know he'd hate the fact that you guys went to the place of his death.
He wouldn't like it, so maybe it was he who inspired someone to take down the tribute, to urge you to move on, to bring your grief away from that place, because other than one fatal moment, he's not tied to it, and he didn't want you there.

Thanks, Mia. It seems there is sadness everywhere. Be happy as much as you can. Your brother would want that. Mark is trying to begin thinking of his life without Patti and what he should do next. I think that after the funeral is over and people's expectations die down and disappear that he will make it all right.

MiaElla - It is sad but you can't coun't on something like that. Some places the memorial items stay forever and ever. Sorry yours were gone so soon.

Mia... you should call and ask them.
That way if it was some freak of nature vandal you could address that.

gyp,
I'll be mad if that's the case. My mom had been in contact w/ the department of transportation...so they knew she wanted to keep that stuff...so if they tossed it...that would be just plain cruel. They had her number, they could have called her. This town isn't all that big.

Uni,
I'm not so much worried about me as I am about my mother. She's not doing too well. She centered her life around my brother since the day he was born. He was her purpose in life and now she doesn't want to live and she's very sick and can't take stress...ugh!

Gyp,
What do they do with the stuff...my brother's candy cane decoration, the beautiful angel statue, the bucket with the flowers...surely they just don't toss it do they?

As terrible as it is that his memorial is gone, perhaps it’s a sign that the time has come to try and let go. I know it’s not just as easy as saying, “Ok, all done grieving now.” But the healing process has to have a beginning if it’s ever going finish. It seems pretty obvious that your brother loved you very much, and I would imagine he would want you to heal and be able to live your life and be happy. Maybe it’s time to let his memory be in peace, and let yourself learn to live again. You’re always in my thoughts. Every single day.

Mia...
I'm sorry they did it. I think they'll only leave them for a short amount of time and then they expect grieving to be done at the cemetary. Not too nice I agree, but I guess it's considered a distraction to other drivers.
