Wow.. Sad, yet ironic. Most tall stones are usually easy to upset by pushing on them between 2 and 4 feet from the ground, by means of rocking. I witnessed a teenager push one over w/ his foot, and proceeded to sit with him, as he waited for someone from the cemetery...and his parents to arrive. That way they could arrange to pay for the damage and have it uprighted. Too many unlikely dangers to be causually walking in an old cemetery.. sink holes (ankle breakers), etc.
