80 graves damaged at Gatineau cemetery - jeff.legault - 12-03-2009
Second cemetery in the region damaged by vandals withina week! Unbelievable!
My grandparents Legault and great grandparents Charron are buried in Ste Rose-de-Lima. Stone is pretty huge so not likely damaged

A very disturbing trend.
