@smile2000xx: tomb is the final resting place where the casket is lowered
grave is the location to find a love one
the casket is lower in the tomb(space provide)
grave is more the location of the burial
cemetary is where you go(plot of the burial)
grave markers are numbers to find your love one in case they dont have a headstone
Headstone is where you find the name and the dates (when they born and when they died)
example
i will pay my respects and go to the cemetery and visit his grave(site)
i will find his tomb and pay my last respects to my dear friend who pass away
example
i will pay my respects and leave flowers on his tomb
i will pay respects and leave flowers on his grave
