Pleasant Church and Cemetery
As many of you may know, Pleasant Church on RT 23 in Center Point has not held service for quite some time. I was taking donations to keep the grass cut and also had the gutters cleaned out for they had a lot of weeds and dirt in them. However, the cemetery is having a lot of issues from people in the neighborhood.
Junk is being stored in the Church yard as well as picnic table. There have been people trying to move on the Church yard with tents and campers. Also the cemetery drive way and yard is being used to timber on someone else property above the cemetery.
I have asked them to please stop, but they ignore my pleas. They have no business or right to tear up the Church property for their own personal gain.
I have been trying to take care of this property for a long time now, and I have given no such permission to use the cemetery to gain access to the right of way which is actually off of the main road on 23. There has been some of the old markers ran and plowed over. If anyone would please help in having an alliance for preserving this Church and Cemetery, also any relatives of the Sullivan Family, please get in contact with me.
