Noel Cribbin is saying we come in to this world with nothing and we leave "with the same".
If it ain't broke don't fix it.
That's the message from Fine Gael Councillor Noel Cribbin to Offaly County Council over a proposal to change the graveyard in Edenderry to a lawn cemetery.
If the plans go ahead, each grave will be covered in grass with a headstone and no kerbs.
He says it should be left the way it is, and if the local authority wants to improve it they could introduce rules around the size of headstones:
