In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school.

The job came with a house, which meant we had to move right next door to the graveyard. The first few weeks were a little bit spooky.

Wed only been at the house a few nights when, just after dark, I heard terrible howling noises. It turned out to be Dad! He got his finger stuck in the cemetery gate when he was trying to work out how the new locks worked. I haunted my parents “Cant we move? Cant we move?” nearly every day. My sister said I did more moaning than any ghost could ever do. Mum just shook her head, and said: “There are so many great things about living here. Its peaceful and quiet in this dead-end street. And the community spirit around here is out of this world.”A few months later, it was Dads turn to complain. “I dig deep for this job, but Im going to nowhere fast. Im not sure that theres any future in the cemetery.” For some reason, I felt really bad when I heard this. I walked out of the house and into the back garden. As I looked out across the graveyard, I realized that Mum was right. This place was as close as Heaven as you could get on Earth. I didnt want to leave. I asked my parents not to move.
