    3. I was just looking at WTOV-9 website http://www.wtov9.com out of Steubenville and come across this article. I just think it is a shame that someone would do this. I apologize if this offends anyone by sending this, but I felt it was pertinent to send, especially for those of us who may have relatives that are buried there. Thieves Raid Local Cemetery Days Before Easter Dozens Of Decorative Vases Stolen POSTED: 12:00 a.m. EDT April 9, 2004 COLERAIN, OH -- Just days before Easter, thieves hit dozens of gravestones at a local cemetery. The Belmont County Sheriff's office is investigating the theft of 64 brass and copper flower vases from the Holly Memorial Gardens in Colerain. The vases were a foot tall, and some had crosses on them. Because they are so heavy and there were so many stolen, police think the thieves used a truck to haul them away. If you have any information, call the Belmont County Sheriff's Office. -Eric Minor, NEWS 9 --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
