Rich: I cannot believe you would be in favor of destroying living, thriving, prairie grasses only because of some little adverse affects of letting this cemetery become a 'shrine' to weeds rather than to the humans who once resided in Wayne Township. We are all very much aware of how well the Indiana Department of Natural Resources takes care of their cemeteries. I recall driving by the Rogersville Cemetery in Henry County in which so many beautiful grasses and native flowers were in bloom and were actually protecting the pioneer grave markers from the wear and tear of the elements. How much more thoughtful can the State of Indiana be??? I mean, after all, these grasses are ALIVE and the people buried there are DEAD! Come on Rich, no state agency has any more regard for our pioneer dead than the DNR. I cannot believe they would allow human remains to be scattered throughout the ground. After all, this is the same state agency that was so protective of some early Marion County pioneers a few years ago that they stored their remains in their DNR offices for months, maybe years, so that they would be safe. They even had their own cardboard bankers' boxes! How much more respect can you get than that? There must be some mis-understanding on your part. I'm sure a call to your local Conservation officer would take care of this little issue in no time. Heck, maybe someone from the DNR read your message and is starting an investigation into who would have allowed such a situation to get out of hand. (I'll bet it was those stiffs over at IDEM!!!) But irregardless, to insinuate that the DNR could have any part of such an atrocity.....Really! I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of this matter soon. I can't imagine it taking more than one phone call or email to rectify this and see that the Granville Cemetery is once again in tip top shape! Kyle D. Conrad PS.. I wouldn't make it a point to be around when they actually light those 'controlled' burns. Our local DNR had one at the Lasalle Preserve a few years ago and they lost a tool shed and three or four tractors... It's all in the definition of 'controlled'...
