Somehow to me it seems disrespectful for a pumpkin patch to be right across from the Clovis Cemetery. I realize commercial entities are coming close and businesses are likely to build right in front and beside it, but really what is next, R.I.P Bar and Grill?
Halloween is a day that death and spirits are mocked, and for years many folks have gone through grief and have religious funerals, with priests and ministers. To have a pumpkin vendor across the street is a mockery of all those buried there and their survivors.
