Greenlawn Cemetery in Franklin is the one on the east side of US31, just south of SR44. The article takes up half the front page today. http://www.thejournalnet.com/ 6/30/04 The short version is: the city maintains the grounds, individuals are responsible for the stones. "Park board members will discuss the vandalism issue at their next meeting July 26 and decide whether to pay for some of the damage." The article also states that tombstones are "actually very fragile and easier to knock over than people think." We sure didn't need that statement put out to the public! The photos don't show any broken stones, just toppled apart.
