Unclaimed babies laid to rest in double funeral

Those in attendance were asked to stay in their cars or stand six feet apart.

INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) - A solemn moment Friday afternoon on the eastside of Indianapolis as two unclaimed babies were laid to rest.

The double funeral took place at Washington Park East Cemetery. Those in attendance were asked to stay in their cars or stand six feet apart.

It was organized by the ministry "He Knows Your Name". Their mission is to give abandoned babies a burial with dignity.

"It's really important we keep doing the things we can do in our community and remember that it's so significant to celebrate life, even though we are all struggling with issues in life and we remember that," said Linda Znacko, founder of the organization.

The two babies were left unclaimed at a local hospital and were named Addaleigh and Zakhari.
