    Hi Matt,

    Yes, the stones. I do that, too, even though I am not Jewish. I also leave oranges, and have a toast at the site, pouring a share onto the grave.

    Baseball for many is a religion unto itself. ;-)

      There are 2 Hells Angels buried in the same cemetery where my parents are and they have coins all over the tops of their stones. Guess it doesn’t matter your culture it’s still a sign of respect for the departed.
