Digging it

I work on the Holy Cross Cemetery project (“Grave business,” Arts by Shannon Fay, August 12) and most of the volunteers, by far, are Catholic and of Irish descent. Most of the damage done has been from erosion over time, not deliberate vandalism. As a Catholic, I would prefer that the church spend its few funds on the poor and spreading the faith. I’m happy to pick up a shovel. —posted by Halifaxguy
