Families in Lisburn, Northern Ireland, are upset after memorial benches, including one for Alexander McIlroy, were removed from a local cemetery without notice by the Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council. The council admitted to not keeping records of the removed benches and said maintaining them is the family's responsibility. The removals may continue as part of plans to create new burial spaces.
