    1. RE: [INPCRP] What cemetery was hit last night?

    3. I have photographed 28 damaged stones (one article says there are 30 but I have found only 28 so far) at Greenlawn this morning and have posted them online along with articles from The Daily Journal (Johnson Co.) and WTHR- Ch. 13 at http://www.bradmanz.com/greenlawn_vandals.html Brad Manzenberger -----Original Message----- From: Sharon Howell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2004 8:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [INPCRP] What cemetery was hit last night? 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. Sharon Howell ==== INPCRP Mailing List ==== Blessed are the Elderly, for they remember what we will never know.
