Cemetery seems stark and sad now

Continuing reaction to Summerland's cemetery controversy.

Dear Editor:

I’m shocked and appalled that the city would deface the gravestones at Canyon View Cemetery.

It is a stark and sad place now.

There was a feeling of love and community there before. What have they gained?

One would think they would then wash the headstones and weed properly.

But no, when you walk around up there you can still see where the thoughtful mementos sat.

It is baffling to me why they would do something so thoughtless and hurtful.
