"Family Outraged After Mother Buried in Wrong Grave"

Oops. Or maybe not.

SAN ANTONIO -- A San Antonio family is outraged after finding out their mother was buried in the wrong grave. In fact, she was buried on top of a complete stranger.

"This is a man's name." said Erlinda Davis. "My mother wanted to be buried on top of her grandmother."

...

Davis told News 4 she's been trying since January to get the officials at San Lorenzo Cemetery to fix the problem.

"They're stating they're not at fault, that the paperwork they had was the paperwork my mother gave them," Davis said.

It's paperwork Davis said is not what she remembers signing.

"They've been tampered with," claimed Davis. "Some whited out, added information." [emphasis added]

I wonder how much of a stranger that man actually was to Ms. Davis's mother.
