Do you believe in ghosts? Me neither. But sometimes things happen that you just can't explain…read more First, I'll begin with a review if the cemetery. La Fontaine is an old creole cemetery. It was founded long ago and dates to the first settlers of this area in and around Lacombe. The thing I find most interesting about this cemetery is that nearly all of the graves are adorned with flowers or some item of significance to the deceased. Most cemeteries I visit have flowers on just a few graves. Here nearly every grave had them. Another interesting thing is that this is one of the few places where the graves are lit with candles on all saints day. I have yet to see that, but hope to next year. Now for the relay reason you're reading this review; I'll get to the ghost story. This cemetery is allegedly haunted. Stories of ghostly figures and moving tombstones are found all over the internet. I was extremely skeptical until the other day when I witnessed something beyond strange. There I was, leaving the nearby convenience store when I pulled up to a stop sign. I was scanning both directions before proceeding when I saw it. Lying underneath a tree directly in front of the cemetery was a body. "My goodness!", I exclaimed. "I believe I see a ghost". Not believing my eyes, I pulled closer. It appeared as if one of the residents of the cemetery had left his grave and decided to appear under the tree. Knowing no one would believe me, I took some photos. Thoroughly terrified, I quickly left the area and returned about an hour later. Would you believe it? That ghost was gone. I am sure you skeptics will have some alternate explanation, but I know what I saw. If you doubt me, look at the photos and tell me I'm wrong.

She went above and beyond to help me order my father's VA bronze marker. There had been confusion at the VA office and Jean got everything worked out for me and my siblings. Seriously, I could not have done this without her. She even sent me a photo of the marker to be sure it was correct before having it installed. After installation, she sent me another picture so that I could see how everything turned out. Big thanks to Jean and Pinecrest Memorial Garden! I can't say enough about their excellent service and also how well they work alongside E.J. Fielding Funeral Home. My father served in the U.S. Army for 28 years, seeing extended action in WW2 and Korea. Jean's care and consideration have helped us bring honor to his service to his country. Many thanks!

The funeral home there had no idea what to do and serenity funeral home walked them through everything. They sent his clothing with him also so the funeral home there would have everything they needed. They went above and beyond. If not for their honesty and dedication I couldn't have gotten my son back home for burial and would have had to cremate him. Other funeral homes were gonna charge me for a whole funeral which was twice the cost. I called several. I appreciate these folks so very much and highly recommend them. The guy even said he would pray for our family which you don't hear often these days. I have so much respect for them. Thanks to them, the worst time of my whole life was less stressful, which when you're already overwhelmed , it means so very much.

I was told on the phone, by Tracy, the director that it's not the first time this (unnamed) person has made this mistake and that they're probably/definitely going to fired. Also that this person is 'going through some stuff'. I asked how many times this individual has done this. My question was sidestepped! I was told they've been very busy. I received many apologies. Was told that the money for the locks would be refunded to my card. Now I have to tell my niece. I personally believe there should be some sort of penance paid. It's not about the money. Everyone makes mistakes. But this is something that cannot be undone. I was very honest and said I don't feel as if I should have to pay for anything, they ruined EVERYTHING!
