Cemetery Removes Soldier's Spongebob Tombstones
Parents arranged them because of her love of the show
The parents of a slain 28-year-old Ohio soldier honored their daughter with special SpongeBob SquarePants tombstones — until the cemetery removed them.
After the death of Sgt. Kimberly Walker — allegedly killed by her boyfriend — the soldier's parents decided to honor their daughter the best way they knew how. SpongeBob was Kimberly's favorite cartoon character. Even as an adult, she owned many SpongeBob items, including shower curtains.
"SpongeBob went in her casket before we laid her in the ground," mother Deborah Walker told WLWT in Cincinnati.
