I guess my question for the removal of gravesite remains [members of the Wolfe family in unmarked graves] is why?
Evidently these 10 graves have been on that property for many, many years. Why, if not a crime scene, were they not left to remain there for eternity?
If unearthed and testing done, the remains should be put back on the property, as that was and is where they belong. How sad families generations ago laid their families to rest, peacefully and have to be removed.
Why couldn't they be fenced off and remain there. Will we soon dig all the graves connected to Beebe Hospital and other areas that are in the way of selling properties for developers?
