What a heartbreak right before the holidays to learn that you may have to move the remains of your pet!
The Pet Rest Cemetery off Glenwood Avenue near Interstate 540 has been a comfort to hundreds of pet owners in the last 30 years. A peaceful hillside spot where you can come and relax and visit with your pet.
Not so anymore.
Owner, Jerry Rogers, sold the 2.3-acre site to the neighboring Brier Creek Corporate Center. Graves have been dug up, caskets are stacked and waiting to be moved.
Of course the owner felt he was doing pet-owners a favor by telling them they could have the remains back to rebury or cremate. "... we thought it was better to honor the memories of people's pets and offered to move all of them."
Unlike human cemetaries, pet cemetaries can be moved at any time.
Maybe Mr. Rogers never loved a dog.
