Darren Doyle, story:
The thief or thieves are back at it again at the grave site of the late Tammy Cowles Cole, as more flowers were reported stolen today. According to Mrs. Pat Cowles, Tammy's mother, three large flower arrangements that were anchored into the ground were taken from the grave in Hawkins Cemetery on Brownsville Road sometime since yesterday. "Everything was fine yesterday but sometime since then, someone stole three of her large bouquets," she said. "We had them wired into the ground and somebody dug them up and took them." Mrs. Cowles, or "Mrs. Pat," as many locals remember her from the school system, was very distressed as she spoke. "We just can't figure out why someone would do this. Please, if anybody knows anything about this, please say something." The Edmonson Voice first reported the incident that took place on October 3rd, where all of the decorations were stolen from Mrs. Cole's grave, just two days after being buried. Reward money has been pledged in the amount of $3600 for information leading to the arrest of those involved. Anyone with information is asked to call the Edmonson County Sheriff's Office at 270-597-2157. The Sheriff's Office said that information can be given anonymously and the reward can still be claimed.

The people who are taking the flowers are not hurting Tammy in anyway. She has gone on to a better place. The living, grieving family are the ones who are being hurt. They have done nothing but love her. Her sons, her parents, her sibling and friends are the ones who suffer every time someone disrespects her resting place. It’s time to let them have some peace. Leave her alone and stop hurting her loved ones!
