The destruction of the gravestones at Riverside Cemetery in Lewiston was horrible, to say the least. Television, and the pictures in the Sun Journal, did not come close to seeing it in person (Aug. 21).

I have family buried there and, on Sunday, my wife and I went to check on the graves. Fortunately, the graves were not touched, but not far from those graves the destruction was very evident.

I really hope that the individuals who are responsible for the damage will be held accountable, including paying for the damage and performing community service for one year.
