Memorial Day 2012 Desert Lawn Memorial Park Kennewick

May 29, 2012 - Krista Whitesitt of Pasco adds a flag Monday to the grave of her husband Roy who died Oct. 28, 2011, and served in the Air Force in Korea. Whitesitt and others attended a Memorial Day ceremony at Desert Lawn Memorial Park in Kennewick. Ceremonies were staged throughout the Tri-Cities to honor and remember veterans.

People who think taking flowers and vases from a loved one's grave is a great idea should stop and think. They only make themselves cheap and disrespectful.

This happened recently to a final resting place that is well kept by workers and staff who care, along with family and friends who care.

I feel sorry for those who cannot respect that.

Barbara Myers, Pasco
