Management of Bethesda Cemetery in West Terre Haute Indiana

Bill is a sick person that has no heart

I'm so sorry to hear about this. You all are in are prayers. I pray that you get your 1,000 signatures.

Its time for a change this crap cant stand anymore

My daughter and her grandfather are buried at this cemetery and their things just got thrown away with no disregard. No warning. Had we known they needed to be cleaned off, we obviously will have gotten their things.

My mother has been buried there for 2 years, and never has there been a clean up day, never has is been an issue to have small items at her resting place, and never has it been an issue to leave decorations for special days/holidays. Also our family has had to do the upkeep of her resting place(mow, pull weeds, and stick removal).

This is so sad! My father has been buried there since 2011 and I always loved coming there and seeing how pretty all the graves were! It was definitely eye catching! I can’t believe they are trying to make change and enforce rules that never were a issue before! So sad praying for everyone and their loved ones out there at the cemetery!

Full support!

This is are love ones gravy yard, we paid for the slots it not there property anymore, it our family's the ones that paid to put there love ones there. We pay for the property to have are love ones buried there we should be able toput what we want on there gravys

This is so disrespectful

This is just wrong. What makes it even worse is that Bill McClain’s families items weren’t removed as well as everyone else’s.

Not only an active board but also get Bill McClain off of it

My brother in law is buried out there and so is the rest of their family some who dont have headstones because they couldnt afford it so they put stuff like crosses and angel statuse out to remember where their beloved family was and thanks to bill mcclain they have no way to find there family now thanks for ruining a lot of peoples memories by throwing there stuff away they put there to remember them.

And some of us couldn't afford to get a headstone for our loved ones so we would put a cross on their graves.... How r we supposed to find their graves now that they took the crosses off?

My brother is buried out there he was only 25 years old he has been gone for nine months. I also have a lot more family members out there and my parents are the ones that keeps the graves clean out there. My parents cuts the grass around our family members graves. So my opinion is that they should be able to put whatever they want on the graves.. it a way of grieving over our lost ones...

My son been buried 9 months today I am still grieving over him and we go out there and take care of his graveyard and our niece we cut the grass all around it includes next to him and we cleaned it up they do not touch it at all and I don't want them to so why in the name of Jesus Christ they have to do this

I also think this was disrespectful to our loved ones . We go to visit & love to decorate my son Cody Jeffrey drove almost 2 hours to decorate his grandparents & uncles grave sites for Easter . He was very hurt & I've had a small cement bear on my parents grave for years & it's gone as well ! Shame on your decision could have @ least waited until after Easter my niece let us know since we no longer live in vigo county .

I think it's very rude to see this and makes me really mad I just took my grandparents stuff for there graves and my cousin found it in the trash! So rude

This is heart breaking !! We had three of our Shepherd hooks taken off and we couldn't find them. They have been out there for years why does it matter if a hook is 3 feet tall or 5 feet tall a hook is a hook doesn't make any since. Bill McClain is a heartless man and it time for a change. You would understand if you was out there and saw what they did to our loved ones graves this is horriable...

We had to cut the grass to my dad's grave last summer because grass was knee high..it was awful just broke my heart and my daddy wanted to be buried here and if he had known I'm sure he would have changed his mind.

A lot of my family are there. This is a disgrace that someone would do this to other people’s loved ones especially during a holiday when everyone goes to visit their loved ones and expect to see the memories and gifts they leave to honor and comfort them missing and thrown over the hill like garbage. Whoever did this should have to pay for what he did.
