A devastated mother has been left 'insulted' after her baby's headstone was removed from a graveyard
A devastated mother has been left 'insulted' after her baby's headstone was removed from a graveyard. Thornhill Cemetery in Cardiff has confirmed they took down the memorial put in place for little Aiden Gupta because it breached height restrictions.
A Cardiff Council spokesman backed the decision by arguing there are height restrictions put in place in the babies section "to ensure families who have little access to funds know that their baby can be commemorated in the same way as a family with unlimited funds". "You are and will remain our first son little pumpkin. Thank you for coming into our lives and making it beautiful."
"A man came out and said it did not match the rules and regulations because it was too tall. So many people said it was such a beautiful memorial. The council spokesman said: “The loss of a child is always deeply tragic and we understand that the family in this case are distressed that the gravestone they chose has been removed.

This is done at cost price and individual designs are developed with a trusted supplier.
