Q: anything I can do about my sister's mother in law taking stuff from my nieces gravesite because she is mad about family

Me and my family have put a lot of time and money into keeping up my nieces gravesite and it's all been taken off due to my sister's mother in law being mad about something someone else In my family did. I feel as if she is taking it out on the gravesite and it is extremely disrespectful to my niece. Especially when we are putting the time and money into making the site look nice. We even bought the headstone and she has paid for nothing.
