Vandals lack respect for others, themselves

| November 12, 2008 8:00 PM

The person who did this graffiti in the Bonner General Hospital Healing Garden trampled on a sacred place in Sandpoint.

How could you do this?

Don’t you understand that graffiti is something you can spray on boards you own — not around town because you “feel like it.” This is vandalism.

You did not respect the signs on all entrances to the Healing Garden.

Your actions saddens my heart for this beautiful and tranquil place, where people from the hospital or hospice can come and have beauty and quiet to help them in whatever hardships and sorrows they go through.

So, please clean up after yourself and then you can live with a good conscience.

Thank you to all volunteers with compassion for making the Healing Garden available for all of us.

Thank you to kids and other people whom respect this beautiful place for what it is.
