Tens of thousands of people are buried in Colma in an area that looks nothing like a cemetery.
The remains of more than 25,000 San Franciscans now sit beneath the cut flower operation in a field along Colma Boulevard, beneath a private nursery. The field, which is now covered in flowers, sits between two big-box retailers: Best Buy and Home Depot.
Concerned family members are saying that the covered area prevents them from paying respects to their loved ones underneath.
