Former Glendale Mayor Garcin Talks Disinterment

The cremated remains of Thomas and Lucille Garcin will be disinterred from the Garden of Prayer urn garden at Grand View Memorial Park early next week. Provided by: Lisa Burks
Grand View Memorial Park blogger Lisa Burks talks to Bob Garcin, who served on the City Council from 1975 to 1983, about disintering his father and stepmother from the troubled cemetery. Edwin Thomas Garcin died on May 20, 1954 and Lucille Norman Garcin followed Jan. 2, 1966.

"I'm thankful that they are in urns and not caskets," Garcin said. "I don't know if I'd be doing a disinterment if it was a casket. I don't think I could go through that."
