Graves with no grass, graves covered in grass, missing vases, and nearby residents said the stench coming from the mausoleum is once again a problem at Sunset Memorial Gardens. Family members with loved ones said it’s devastating that the problems continue.
Jim Floyd walks Sunset Memorial Gardens regularly because that’s where his son and granddaughter are laid to rest.
When he visited their graves last week, he said he found them covered with weeds and tall grass.
Floyd said he’s filed a complaint with the state about the condition of the cemetery. So has Tyler Dooley, who has four family members buried in Sunset Memorial Gardens.
Dooley lives in the neighborhood behind the gardens. He said the mausoleum, which was part of a 2013 investigation that lead to the cemetery shutting down, is still a problem.
He said in the last couple of weeks the doors have been opened up again to air the building out.
