The cemetery commission would have trouble functioning were it not for the hard work of these inmates every Thursday. They're the best! As an aside, someone has fired 5 or 6 shots at close range through that county cemetery sign in the Winn-Watson cemetery. If you know anything about it, please report it to the Sheriff's Office.
