The gate is finally down and they actually moved the equipment so families can get back to the graveyard like they should have been able to all along. I am honestly still reeling from the news but it feels so good to know we pulled this off and kept that …

The families to the loved ones who are laid in this graveyard have to constantly fight just to visit their loved ones because people who live on this road think they own it. This is a county road and said people have put a gate up and locked it to keep families away from visiting their loved ones.

I honestly never thought this would gain so much traction when I started it in the middle of a frustrating afternoon because the gate was locked again. It feels like people actually care about these families being able to visit their loved ones without jumping through hoops which is just honestly such a relief.

Any road to a cemetery should be open for the families to go to anytime of the year. Just because you live on the road doesn’t make it your property when it belongs to the county. Please be respectful to others that have loved ones buried there.

This is uncalled for. For someone to keep away from their family members that have passed. I go and just sit with mine and have talks. Loosing both parents within 8 mo the apart done something to me. So I go to feel their presence. Please for the love of God someone do something for this family.

Elizabeth is a very fine woman and doesnt deserve being denied access to her mothers final resting place. It takes a very petty person to block a road to a cemetary.

My husband's family members are buried up there and its against the law to block a graveyard anyway i know this for a fact because i had to call the law to keep my county road open where we lived and it was a graveyard up there out from our house. And they made him open the road and told him if I had to call them again he would go to jail.

It’s important for the grieving process to see burial plots when one chooses to do so. Please keep that in mind and keep the road open to the cemetery
