Glenn E. McGinnis
Editor, The Journal;
I would like to say thanks to
the low down person or persons
who took the flowers from my
Grandson’s grave the 30th or
31st. of May.
It seems a shame that a per
son can’t even send flowers to
a loved one without them being
stolen.
It is bad enough to steal from
the living but to steal from the
dead shows how low down and
worthless they are.
I certainly hope the person
or persons who do things like
this will be caught and punished
severely.
