Sometime in the future, burials will happen again at Burr Oak Cemetery.
Although the Burr Oak Cemetery is closed as a crime scene there will come a time that burials will have to continue. Preneed Contracts held by the cemetery will have to be honored. It does seem a little far off considering that the headstones visible at the cemetery are not all put up on the website.
So far there is no accounting of the desecrated graves at the Cook County Sheriff’s website:www.burroak.net
Sheriff Dart has stated that it will be several weeks before the listing of the headstones that are present at the cemetery will be complete.
At that time grave desecrations can be addressed that are not being handled in lawsuits.
Another cemetery in Illinois has had had their licenses removed and closed have to conduct burials.This is Valley View Cemetery in Edwardsville,Illinois. From thetelegraph.com
“They have a responsibility to the people they have sold these pre-need burial contracts, said Carol Knowles, a spokeswoman for the comptroller….burials have taken place with the volunteer help of former employees.
More burials are scheduled for the next few days.”
There is no word whether burials are being conducted at Burr Oak Cemetery now or in the future.
