TWO DAYS AGO, someone in Canada logged on to Reddit’s Ireland page and made a relatively simple request. He/she asked someone, anyone, to go and visit their great uncle’s grave in Harold’s Cross.
Via Reddit
The poster included a link to an image of the grave online, and one day later someone responded, posting this image of flowers on the grave, not asking for anything in return, simply saying that it had been a ‘bitch to find’.

The original poster responded thankfully, saying they were in tears, and everyone else was mega impressed. You can read it all here, but we particularly liked reading the grave visitor's strategy for finding it.

We reckon that is pretty genius, actually.
Technology, eh? Maybe it really is bringing us all closer together.
