Tampa Couple Faces Burial Plot Dispute After 20 Years
A Tampa couple, Sue and James Artiga, who purchased burial plots 20 years ago, discovered that someone else is buried in their designated graves at Woodlawn Cemetery. Despite owning the rights to the plots, they were informed that they cannot receive a refund or alternative plots. The City of Tampa, which acquired the cemetery section in 2023, is investigating the situation. The couple, now elderly, is concerned about their burial arrangements and the financial implications of purchasing new plots.
