Mum horrified as dad’s grave covered in mounds of dirt ‘as if he didn’t exist’
A Northumberland mum was “completely disgusted” to find her father’s last resting place covered by a mound of dirt, with family flowers and tributes slung to one side.
Tony Gray, from Stakeford, died at the age of 60 in January last year. The Argus Powerbend worker was killed by Covid-19, after a number of employees at the Sunderland-based plant tested positive for the virus.
This weekend, Tony’s grieving daughter Gemma had been planning to pay her respects at her dad’s graveside at West Sleekburn Cemetery, along with her son Riley, nine.
But a call on Saturday from a friend who has a loved one buried nearby warned her his grave was in a “shocking” state.
