About me:
Our Mission
Our mission in paranormal investigating is to provide
information and proof that there is indeed life after death.
Some people say "Seeing is believing," so we are going
to do just that. By using both scientific and clairvoyant
techniques, we are going to provide images, videos, and
sounds of the spirit world to try and convince even the
most avid skeptic that yes, there is more after life on
earth. At no time will we offer to remove a spirit or entity.
If we are able to determine a location is haunted and the
property owner is insistent on having the spirit(s)
removed, we encourage them to contact a member of
their clergy or refer them to another organization.
Because we keep all personal information strictly
confidential, we will not place private residence reports
on our web site and at no time will we charge a fee for
investigations. We are very happy to bring you our
research, and hope that you enjoy it! Please feel free to
contact us should you have any questions or comments
on what we could do to improve.
Who I'd like to meet:
CCPI ADOPTS POTTER'S FIELD!
Grand Junction, Colorado.
Tuesday, April 14, 2009.
CCPI Paranormal Investigations is now the proud
"Adopted Owner" of the Grand Junction Potter's Field
Cemetery! The CCPI Board of Directors met with City
officials this morning to finalize the agreement. CCPI
will regularly clean and maintain the cemetery, which
is thought to be the first in Grand Junction. As soon
as the first phase of cleanup is complete, the City of
Grand Junction along with CCPI will have a
ribbon-cutting ceremony and a plaque will be displayed.
CCPI has held the Potter's Field in favor for
many years and decided to try to adopt it when they
discovered a sunken grave last weekend. Pieces of a
casket had surfaced from the sinkhole, the metal
adornments still attached to the almost petrified wood.
CCPI Founder, Rev. Clarissa Vazquez spent the better
part of last Friday calling various businesses and
organizations all over the city, trying to determine
who was responsible for the maintenance.
"We would have tucked the pieces back into the
hole and shoveled some dirt into it, but we weren't
sure of the legal ramifications." Vazquez said in a
statement earlier today. "We even called the police. No
one wanted to claim it."
The team even offered to take over the property wholly if no one was going to claim it
and called the City Planner's office to see who held the deed. That's when they were put in
touch with officials from the Parks Department and the Orchard Mesa Municipal Cemetery. The
cemetery, who had originally claimed not to know who was responsible for the field, agreed to
put the pieces back into the hole and fill it with soil. When the team offered to "Adopt" the
field, the City was overjoyed, stating they don't currently have the resources or the manpower
to care for the old cemetery the way it should be.
In addition to cleaning the trash and other debris inside the cemetery, CCPI has also
agreed to try to identify the individuals buried there. There are only two actual head stones
in the field and eight people are listed as buried. It is speculated that there are
approximately 80 individuals resting at Potter's Field. The last person to be buried there is
believed to be Julian Pacheco who passed away from illness in 1936.
When asked if she had concerns about other groups defacing the CCPI plaque, Vazquez
replied, "We are all adults here. I have faith that the other organizations would never stoop
so low as to deface property out of animosity. Regardless, we have notified the Orchard Mesa
Cemetery officials and the Grand Junction Police Department about the possibility."
