Mary Richardson Kennedy's headstone has finally been placed on her gravesite five months after her tragic suicide and Breaking Celebrity News has exclusive photos.
The headstone simply says 'Mary Richardson' on one line and then in a larger size her married last name, 'Kennedy' - the only other inscription is her date of birth and date of death.
In front of the headstone is a Blessed Mother Mary statue, a St. Francis statue and hidden in the flowers a small elephant statue.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s estranged wife is buried in the St. Francis Xavier Cemetery in Centerville, Mass. and they confirmed
to Breaking Celebrity News that the headstone was placed approximately two weeks ago.
A local resident who recently visited the cemetery, and took the photos exclusively obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, says that she was "shocked" by the location of Mary's grave and by the lack of any inscription celebrating the life of the mother of four.
“The gravesite is at the front of the cemetery but in an area not well kept at all," the resident says. " So anyone that goes there has no privacy. You can see it from the road either driving or walking. The last picture shows the headstone facing in the opposite direction of the other graves in the area.
"On the other hand the other deceased family members' graves are surrounded by shrubs in a beautiful area. Mary's grave even though close to the front is isolated from the nicest areas with green grass etc. It is so sad and lonely. And how about the stone? Nothing except birthday, date of death and name. No 'beloved'
