Besides taking care of the grounds and reapairing those markers they damaged, they should also have to clean and repair every headstone in the cemetary. And they should be made to apologize face to face with the members of the families of those markers they damaged

I liked Rhonda from Colfax idea. I agree the courts should make an example out of theese two men. As their punishment they should have to dig the graves,mow the grass, trim around the headstones and whatever grounds maintaince is needed for at least 10 years, Any money earned will go to the famlies to restore their headstones. If they fail in any of the tasks assigned add another two years of work and any money earned should go to the family for pain & suffering.

I think they should be made to help repair the damage and get more then a slap on the hand for what they did, it is a serious thing, anyone who would get a kick out of doing somthing like this, is sick!!

I think the vandals should be charge with a felony crime! They diserve lots of community service as well. It will take a lot of man hours to repair the damage, and they need to learn a HARD LESSON>>>>

If they had that much fun knocking over the headstones. They should have the fun of putting them back to the way they were. If that isn't possible maybe some other type of clean up is in order that would equal the cost of the damage they did.

If guilty they should be responsible for all the damages and help maintain the cemetery 1 day a month for the next 10 years!

I AM GLAD THE 2 MEN WERE CAUGHT, AND THERE PUNISHMENT SHOULD BE THIS; PAY FOR ALL THE DAMAGE TO THE HEAD STONES, AND FOR THE REST OF THERE LIFE, DIG BY HAND, EVERY GRAVE SITE THAT IS NEEDED IN THIS CEMETERY, MOW THE LAWN AND DO ALL THE TRIMMIMNG AROUND THE HEAD STONES!!! MAYBE IT IS TIME FOR THE COURTS TO SET A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR THOSE WHO THINK THEY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO WITH THERE TIME!!!

I'm glad they caught those two punks. I can't imagine what would cause somebody to do something that inconsiderate and hateful.
