We encountered limited explanations, carbon copies instead of legible copies and nonexistent sales recipients. I recommend you push to get a full accounting of your purchases along with your sales receipts, preferably before you leave your appointment. Even after 6 weeks, their billing errors are not fully corrected. You will need to be proactive in order to understand what you purchased and how much it costs.

It's beautiful, old, and fairly unkept (weeds, vines, stickers, fire ants). Drivable/accessible. Susanna Dickinson - section 1, Lot 363 located in the southwest end of the old cemetery. Including info because it's hard to find specifics. Blurry map available online. Bio: Susanna Dickinson was the wife of Captain Almaron Dickinson and was the sole adult Anglo survivor that witnessed the massacre at the Battle of the Alamo. On the morning of March 6, 1836, as the troops of General Antonio López de Santa Anna stormed the mission, Captain Dickinson ran to his wife, reported that all was lost, and expressed hope that she could save herself and their child. Although he died at the Alamo, his wife and child Angelina survived. Following the fall of the Alamo, Susanna was escorted from the Alamo mission, interviewed by Santa Anna himself and sent by him with a message to Sam Houston. She was a strong woman survivor and remained a patriot of Texas, but the memory of those days would haunt her the rest of her life. Bio by: John "J-Cat" Griffith

The older section of Oakwood cemetery is just as painted by literature and movies - crumbled down gravestones, crawling vines, unnamed dead, multiple generations of families buried together, and wrought iron fencing. Go find the graves of John Henry Faulk, Andrew Jackson Hamilton, and Ima Hogg! I hope I have not disturbed any of the dead during my visits there or my Yelp review. I simply like to stroll through Oakwood and take in the haunted beauty. Just thought I'd share one of my favorite, lesser known spots.

Just to clarify, there are no bodily burials here, strictly cremated ones (you can even add your cremated pet). The memorial gardens are beautifully sculpted into the sloping hillside and includes a gravely trail behind it that runs by a creek. I noticed that along the creek trail there appeared to be additional interments along the path. This short path eventually dead ends into a hillside where you have to turn around and go back. Most people opt for the white limestone marker, but you can also get granite as well. One thing that became apparent is that there does not seem to be many open spaces left (the good news is that they are adding more). You'll find an above ground mausoleum on site as well. There is an office at the main entrance for more detailed information, but it's best to make an appointment since it is not always manned, especially during the lunch hour. You can check out their website where you can find more information. The 10 photos and videos included don't fully capture the scope of this place.

When our…read morebeautiful13-year-old daughter passed from Ewing Sarcoma at MDA in Houston, we were initially transferred to another facility for cremation -- a rushed process that left us uneasy because the facility was so cold and nothing like what we expected for our sweet girl. Late that evening, while searching for a place that would truly honor her, we found Cremation.Green. We called close to 9 p.m., and Laci answered with such compassion and understanding. She immediately helped us make arrangements, and by the next morning, they sent a vehicle and our daughter was lovingly brought to their farm. The experience was beyond what we could have hoped for. We were able to watch the entire cremation and send her off ourselves -- something that brought immense peace and closure. The facility was modern, serene, and absolutely beautiful, with a viewing room designed in the warmest, most comforting way imaginable. When we walked out with her ashes, the wind was softly blowing, and the trees and windmill seemed to wave us on. In that moment, we felt a deep sense of calm and gratitude. We are forever thankful to Cremation.Green for creating such a sacred, dignified, and loving space for our little birdie's farewell.
