ROSEVILLE — Some family members who have loved ones buried at a Roseville cemetery are expressing anger over a weekend car show to take place on the grounds.

Nicole Roatch said she visits Roselawn Cemetery to mourn her brother-in-law who was killed in a car accident. Roatch said hot rods, a DJ and barbecue have no place in the peaceful cemetery.

Roselawn superintendent Larry Hudella said he doesn’t think the car show is disrespectful. Hudella said they won’t be driving on anyone’s grave. He said the idea to hold the “Rods and Stones” car show at the cemetery came after about a founding member of the Minnesota Street Rod Association was buried at Roselawn. The groundskeeper noticed many classic cars were driven to the burial.
