I would like to have some feedback about the River Valley Cemetary off of Cain Run Rd. in Louisville. The article on 5-19 was regarding my father and the cemetary's condition. I will not rest until Metro County takes responsibility for the upkeep of the cemetary that our loved ones are buried in, along with our veterans and people who have donated their bodies to science. The coffins are thrown into the graves in paper coffins. The process is so horrible that loved ones are not allowed to stay for the burial. I have to walk thru mud puddles all the way to my father's site. Grave markers are floating and some graves are sunken in and filled with water so bad that you could swim in them. Is my father's coffin going to be floating next year? Although Metro County is generous enough to help with poor, indigent and untimely and unexpected deaths, the process is so inhumane...not only to the deceased but the family is easily traumatized as well. This whole situation was horrible enough without having to be haunted nightly by this "resting place". Would it be so expensive to bring in more dirt and plant some grass seed? People say that once you are gone, your body is just a shell. People have tried to comfort me by saying that where you are buried doesn't matter. That my father would not have cared. I would like those people to walk thru the area then decide....would I want to be buried there? Is it okay if my father, mother, sibling, child, any loved one has a spot reserved here? My father lived a hard life, and his story was the "Big Fish" story. But in his wildest dreams....he would have never imagined at age 52 how his story would end...and how his resting place took away any dignity he had left.
