petition to open Gates and remove them and bury our family there

Take the gates down

People should have the right to visit loved ones. If a gate must be put up each main family member should be given a key. A lot of these older people are the reason that these churches exist. The church body shouldn't deny a person the right to be buried where they want to be.

I think it's sad that people can be so rude & heartless I have family there as well and would like to be able to visit them whenever I want to never have I heard of this putting gates up to block off a cemetery pls remove the gates

My grandmother Margaret Adkins and grandpa Noah Adkins is buried there and my cousin Rachel hambrick and many other family members are buried there. The gates need to be removed so family can visit their loved ones

My mom, sister (from out of state), and I stopped to go to our family members graves and sadly the hates was not able to be opened. We did not know that they had been put up. I understand that the church is trying to protect everything from being vandalized but it will not keep anyone from doing so. I do believe that the gates need to either come down or give all families a key to get in, or maybe they could be opened at 8 am during the day and locked at 6 PM at night every day.

Please leave them unlocked so families can visit their families grave. All my family is buried there

My husband is buried there I like stopping by to talk when I'm down and upset

I have numerous family members buried at this cemetery.I think it is very wrong to have gates closed.Please reconsider doing that.

There is not an actual lock but the way the gate works you cannot open it! So frustrating what they have done to so many families!

I think the gates should be removed . My parents,grandparents aunts,uncles,cousins are buried there . When my time comes to leave this earth I want to be buried there. My husband also has parents and family buried there and is unable to walk (around the gates) to get up there to visit their graves . It would be great if things were the way they were before the church made new rules . Please remove the gates and allow the community to visit and be buried there as they wish

Remove gates. My mom and sister is buried there and grandparents

Peope come from all over the states to visit there loved ones. And I don't think having a locked gate is a good idea. Please reconsider. I also have many family members at this cemetery.

My grandmother Margaret Adkins and grandfather Noah Adkins, my first cousin Rachel Hamrick, uncle Charles Adkins And Many loved ones are buried there. There is no way that the gates should be locked. When you visit your loved ones it should be opened
