    My father is buried there. I reached out to the Mayor's off but to no avail. I am glad that something is finally about to be done.

      Why do the families not get together and pay a monthly or yearly fee to keep the area clean?

    Saying that Memphis is a corrupt city is an understatement. I'm so glad I don't live in that hellhole. No wonder everyone is leaving. Soon it will be a ghost town.

    They want you to forget about it so they can build condos on top of the graves.

    Who OWNS the property,if Memphis doesn’t own the property it’s not the city’s responsibility to maintain it⚰️🪦🤔

    Is the city responsible for maintaining them?

      I guess it depends what city you stay in, where my relatives are buried it's the church responsibility, but I know where some cemeteries that were abandon or neglected the city purchased them in order to keep them up.

    Why do the family not pay to keep their parent’s plot clean and free of overgrown debris?
    Black People always think everything should be paid for by someone else. Why did they interview this woman? It must be a slow news day in Shelby.

      Isn't upkeep part of the initial burial costs? Either the city needs to do something or someone needs a refund. Or should Blk ppl just get taken advantage of and no one has to be held accountable for it?

    Then get your butts out there and clean it up and keep it that way.
    People who see that something needs to be done and wait for someone else to do it aren’t worth a penny. Government moochers.

      My thing is, the city should have been had something in place for a situation like this… its really shameful to watch this for these families going out to visit their grass and weed covered pasted over love ones… I so sorry to the families that you all are having to even go through something like this… this is crazy to me.
