The transition to an active board has been officially finalized. I am incredibly grateful to the 566 people who helped ensure our community will have collective oversight moving forward. We will continue to monitor the management process to ensure these new standards of accountability remain in place.

Bill McClain should step down or be removed from his position, and those who own deeds to plots should be allowed to vote for their board members and also be provided with annual financial statements itemizing expenses.

Doesn’t keep up on the mowing, throws decorations away, headstone company asked Mcclain to put the flag back so they know where to place them for our families, Mcclain said he ‘doesn’t have time’ !!!!!!

As a child, I thought Bethesda was a beautiful resting place. Now I am so saddened to hear and see what has happened (or not happened) to a place where so many of my family members are buried.

Get Bill McClain out of their and let someone that cares about the graves. Because he sure don't or he would not let it look like it does.
