Two brothers want to yank their dad out of his final resting place - and move him far away from the wife he is accused of tormenting in her dying days. David Fuld could have eternity disrupted by sons Fred and Michael, who are suing to boot him from a family plot in a Long Island cemetery, where he was interred in August next to his wife, Roslyn. The long-buried family feud is unearthed in a Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit that says David Fuld was "indifferent and hostile" toward his ailing wife when she was on her deathbed in 1996 - making her life miserable and then skipping her funeral. "I want to honor her last wishes that he not be buried there," Fred Fuld said. "Not long before she died, this was her expressed request to me." The brothers are suing their sister, Cathy Moskowitz, and Mount Ararat Cemetery, charging that they ignored Roslyn Fuld's wishes by allowing her husband of nearly 45 years to be buried alongside her. The frail 68-year-old Long Island woman unsuccessfully tried to get a divorce in the last year of her life, when her sons say David Fuld's "appalling" antics included cutting off the power to her part of the house, sabotaging her car and blasting a stereo late at night. "This was really not new behavior for him," said Fred Fuld, 54. "How he could do this when she was that ill, I just don't know." According to the suit, Cathy Moskowitz said, "Fred, death is all about forgiveness," when her brother protested that their dad should not be buried in any of the eight sites in the family plot at the Farmingdale cemetery. "Three feet is not okay, and 5 feet is not okay, either," said Fred Fuld, a Manhattan lawyer. "And there he is, right next to my mother." Moskowitz, 49, did not return calls to her Lido Beach, L.I., home, and cemetery officials could not be reached. Roslyn Fuld, who purchased the family plot more than 25 years ago, was temporarily left a quadriplegic by breast cancer in 1987. The suit says her suffering did little to stop her husband's cruelty that was "nothing less than appalling." "He did everything possible ... to make her remaining days as difficult and unpleasant as possible," the suit says. Fred and Michael Fuld, 55, accuse Moskowitz and the cemetery of tactics "utterly intolerable in a civilized community" and seek to have them pay for a new gravesite - far away from the family plot. "This was my mother's expressed request to me, that he not be buried near her," he said. "This was the only control she had over what he did."
