"what been taken? flowers?"

They are urns for holding flower arrangements. They are made of bronze and worth quite a bit even as scrap metal.

The people that did this are SCUM!!! They should be made to write letters appoligizing to the familys that were affected along with being made to reinstall them and throw in some hefty fines and jail time

i'm not sure i understand these thefts. surely no scrap yard would purchase these knowing where they came from right? maybe i'm mistaken.

To steal from cemeteries is lower than a snake's belly may the trial and sentencing here on earth be quick but the worse is yet to come when they meet their maker.

"Ornaments" may be metal military or patriotic group markers or nice vases at the base of headstones. If you are missing something from a loved one's grave, report it and describe what is missing. The sheriff's office may have it. Question is, where were they found if they are looking for those responsible?

Ol Bucky Richardson has been called in. He is digging a hidden moat around the grounds with them teeth. This will surely catch the perpetrator. Thank you Bucky.

The week of deer season for the youth hunt I saw a smaller SUV parked by the service building three black men had the hatch open. I had two young hunters and did not want to drive back there but is was 5 in the morning just did not look right. Sorry should have called someone I am sure there was no reason to be there at that hour.

Todd Richardson is nothing more than Mike Lewis' secretary!! He's collecting disability from another agency I believe then the three Amigo's Lewis, Baker and Richardson got Lewis' sherriff$ takeover off and running. Lewis' hand picked department managers have gotten their shares out of the deal

I've had dealings with Todd Richardson when I considered applying to the department years ago.

I found Todd Richardsons demeanor to be rude, arrogant, and self fulfilling.

My interview for the deputy's position was more about his accomplishments
or fantasies in life ,
as a Air Borne Ranger, F.B.I. master shooting school, and his all his accomplishments in a stern voice were directed at me as if I gave a F--k.

I did not need to reflect to hard; should joining the department would all be about kissing Todd's and little Napoleon Lewis's Ass.

So, I opened my own buisness and became successful after retiring in Rank from 25 years of State Service.



Geez,
that was 15 years ago as I reflect.

Jerks like Todd Richardson keep good folks away from that department.

Use a weighted decorative plastic urn. Your loved ones will never know the difference, and the thieves will just be disappointed.

Ol Bucky Richardson has a Capillus cap. He's trying to get some hair. Now if he can go to Aspen dental and get them teeth fixed, maybe he won't be so mad. Don't give up Bucky!!
