Volunteers help tidy Sheppton Mine Disaster victim’s final resting place

SHEPPTON – A volunteer effort helped clean up the gravesite of the miner lost in the Sheppton Mine Disaster this weekend.

A group of volunteers spent the day cutting tree limbs and mowing the grass around the Louis Bova’s gravesite.

Bova was lost in the 1963 Sheppton Mine Disaster and the gravesite is about a quarter mile west of Schoolhouse Road northwest of the village.
