Following the May 12th storm clean up continues at Riverside Cemetery. The time consuming process has caused it to be closed to the public until further notice. Well over 100 trees were snapped, uprooted and twisted in the cemetery from that storm. Sexton at Riverside Cemetery Larry Cross said more assistance will be needed and talks about what will be done when they are ready.
Cross said the reason the cemetery is closed has to do partly with insurance.
For groups or individual to assist there are a couple ways to find out more information.
While Memorial Day weekend is a popular time to visit loved ones grave sites, Riverside remains closed til further notice. Larry makes an appeal to those who want to visit the cemetery.
