The Prince William County Sheriff’s Office held its annual Unclaimed Citizens Ceremony at Dumfries Cemetery on Wednesday, November 10, in Dumfries.
Among the attendees was Prince William County Sheriff’s Office Chaplain, Donald Belanus, who presided over the event. This ceremony provided a permanent resting place for 15 deceased residents of Prince William County, and the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park who went unclaimed by their family members or had no next of kin.
Last year, the Sheriff’s Office Unclaimed Citizens Ceremony was canceled due to the pandemic.
To provide a dignified burial for the deceased residents, the Prince William County Sheriff’s Office contracts with several funeral homes for cremation. In partnership with Joye Nichols, Dumfries Cemetery caretaker, each unclaimed resident was provided with a burial plot and container to hold the remains at no cost. Without the generosity of Nichols, those unclaimed residents would not have a burial plot for their final resting place.
Sheriff Glendell Hill expressed his gratitude to the individuals involved in making the event possible and stated, “I believe everyone should be treated with dignity and respect. Just because someone has no identifiable next of kin, doesn’t mean they deserve to be left behind.”
Through partnerships with local businesses and the community, the Prince William County Sheriff’s Office can honor those deceased residents with a proper burial, so they truly are not left behind. The cremated remains buried include residents who died from natural causes.
Those individuals are Carlos Barahona, Mary Coile, Florence Eiermann, John Fisher, James Ford, Mahmoud Kadkhodazadeh, Lamar Kelpy, Sang Ki Kim, Scott Koep, Eber Rivera, Sally Ann Rosen, Brian Rotty, Sun Shedrick, Robert Sullivan, and Austin White.

During a meeting on Nov. 9, 2021, the Board of County Supervisors agreed to keep seven magisterial districts and invited the public to provide feedback on the draft seven-district map as part of its redistricting efforts.
The public may view the map and provide feedback by visiting www.pwcva.gov/redistricting. The draft seven-district map addresses the growth in the county while adhering to legal redistricting requirements and the Board’s redistricting criteria.
The Constitution of Virginia requires the Board of County Supervisors to change its district boundaries every 10 years in the year ending in one using the most recent decennial population figures. Therefore, the Board is required to adopt a redistricting ordinance in 2021. This ordinance must include boundary lines for the magisterial districts, descriptions of the boundaries, as well as election precincts. The Board is scheduled to hold a public hearing and adopt the redistricting ordinance on Dec. 21, 2021.
The Supreme Court of Virginia is now responsible for redistricting the congressional and state legislative districts.
