Tree falls damaging grave sites

Monday’s storm with strong winds blew down a pecan tree causing damage to grave sites at Greenwood Cemetery in Siracusaville.
Tree damage and obstruction only in the parish’s right of way were being cleared out Tuesday by workers with St. Mary Parish Public Works Department, said St. Mary Parish Road Maintenance & Equipment Supervisor John “Booker” Davis.
Since the cemetery is privately owned, it's the responsibility of the owner to clear out the rest of the tree and debris lying across broken headstones. At this time, the cemetery owner is unknown.
