Condition:
This cemetery is partially fenced but not mowed or maintained.  It is in extremely poor condition.  Most stones are tablets that have fallen and lie broken in many pieces on the ground.  There are many beer cans in the cemetery and it looks like people have been partying there.  Stone pieces have been scattered around.  Only one tablet is upright, leaned against a tree.  A monolith top has been stood upright as well.  Otherwise, the cemetery is practically destroyed.
