Grief was intermingled with irony as the former caretaker of the Lord Ridge cemetery was entombed this evening at the cemetery he used to manage.

The Imperial Band Marched through the streets of the City along with family and friends of 58 year old Russell Neal. His body was carried in a hearse as his relatives followed. Nearing the Lord Ridge Cemetry - he had the additional hand - carried through the street. He was not interred in a grave - rather he the cemetery keeper was entombed in a vault. Crowds of people gathered around to pay their last respects to the long time cemetery's caretaker. 58 year old Russell Neal was murdered at his home on August 4th. No one has been arrested - though his baby's mother was detained and released.
