Carole Goulden says someone has stolen flower arrangements at Pinegrove Cemetery that she placed on her late husbands headstone.
And it’s an ongoing problem.
She said she’s put four saddles on. The saddles are made of wire mesh to hold the flowers and sit on top of the headstone.
Goulden, who is 77, says she can’t understand why anyone would deface a grave.
“It’s the principle. What low-life would go and take flowers from a graveyard ? I was very upset. I went to by daughter’s crying. In don’t understand why people do that sort of thing.”
Goulden says there have been five occasions that their family has had items stolen and she says they are not the only family to experience theft from the cemetery.
