    Sad to say that the Pyramid monument that was erected by the Society in the 1920s at United Cemetery in Pittsburgh, PA was desecrated just a few short weeks ago. Someone took a hammer to the Cross and Crown emblems, removed the top stone (nowhere to be found) and removed one of the sides.

    With all the disgruntled ex-JW's out there I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. Russell gravestone was left intact.

    This is what it use to look like

    And this is what was done to it

    That definitely looks like an ex-JW work...
