Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OMG the frat boy neighbors are singing along to something susiciously Tom-Jones-like. At volume = 11.
In your shoes I'd be tempted to run a hose from my car's tailpipe to their vents and forge "Goodbye, cruel world!" notes in the aftermath.

I'm getting the pig!
Huh. I was born the year Laura graduated from high school.
Perkins didn't kill my ganked wireless connection right away. She lulled me into a false sense of security first. Don't let your guard down, ita!

Sadly, Mrs Helpful is one of her ice packs.

No. That can't be it. That's much too boring.
Oops! Meant to say that I hope you're not in too much pain, Perk. You're on vacation... there shouldn't be pain on vacation!

Um...I didn't say where I was applying it...
Nope, I got nothing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Cemetery can't find dad's grave
Mary Hurst lost her father for the first time on Nov. 10, 1966, the day cancer took his life.
Now she feels like she's lost him all over again after calling St. Sava Cemetery near Libertyville, where she attended his burial. She learned officials there can't find his grave, and that may mean she won't be able to fulfill the wish of her 80-year-old mother--who is dying--to be buried alongside her husband.
"When you entrust these people with this, you expect them to take care of it," Hurst said from her home in Ft. Worth. "Think about it. Just think about what they've done. You have my mother's last wishes, which can't be taken care of."
A St. Sava Cemetery official acknowledges poor record keeping and wonders whether Hurst's father may be buried in an unmarked grave. Another possible explanation he offers is that documents may have been lost when the cemetery changed hands in the late 1970s after a bitter split in the Serbian Orthodox Church.

move out and draw fire
A third option is that they re-sold the plot to someone else. There was a big class-action lawsuit in LA about this a few years ago. The cemetery was disinterring bodies, re-selling the plots, burying the new folks, repeat.
