The Confederate cemetery is a place of honor for the families of those buried there. This gravestone is a beautiful example of the love and devotion the family of David Walker had for this Confederate soldier.
While Andy Berke may be embarrassed for the city of Chattanooga to have been a co-trustee of this sacred ground, he is in the minority. The rally cry should henceforth be: our embarrassment is Andy Berke.
Cemeteries are for the peaceful repose of fathers, mothers, sons and daughters.
This is the wrong place to pander for personal political gain. Will you demand the removal of Confederate gravestones, Andy?
