Lots of flowers and personal grave sites, it's a very different place from northern cemeteries because many of the graves are actually cremations or vaults with the bodies held above ground. The different sections are well marked and one of the most poignant is called "Baby Land' that has the graves of the very young. An different and interesting graveyard to walk around and visit. A beautiful cemetery that is peaceful and reflective.

We even went over 45min for the service, which was changed to our church, and Jeremy and the gentlemen with him served and stood by without a question. I cannot say THANK YOU enough.

We are from out of town and our family member passed away while vacationing in the area. The Hospital provided us a list of providers and because of the location and what we thought was a sound decision we selected National cremation. When we contacted them regarding services that were needed in the evening, we talked to an on-call service who took the information and said they would have a funeral director call us. We did not get a call until the next day with notification that they were essentially closed as they could not meet with the family the following day due to a planned IT outage to change their computer system. Their solution was for us to go online and fill out the needed paperwork. This was the most disgraceful level of service at a point in time when service compassion and caring should've been the upmost primary objective. When we went to transfer services to another crematory in town, we were told that they would hold our family member until their service fee for transporting from the hospital to their facility was paid. Mind you they are maybe a mile from the hospital where they picked up our family member. It took five stressful conversations and a threat for legal action before Michelle would finally release our loved one. With each conversation, she kept saying she would need to check with her "higher-ups". Upon asking to speak with the higher-ups that request was ignored. Michelle finally released our loved ones to the facility we wanted and we can move on. Again, if you're thinking of using this facility, save yourself the trouble, their lack of compassion, understanding and empathy for the families grieving their loved ones is nil. We will be contacting the Better Business Bureau and writing any other reviews that we can. No one should have to endure this kind of stress when dealing with the loss of a loved one. If you're looking for an alternate after reading this, I would seek out compassionate care crematory Korhey and his wife Laura are absolutely beautiful to work with!!!

So my mother and my sister traveled from Pennsylvania to Daytona for a music festival, and sadly my…read moremother suffered an extremely serious medical emergency that ultimately took her life. The hospital she was at issued us a list of funeral homes in the area to assist us with next steps. We contacted National Cremation and burial yo set up arrangements. They would not meet with us last night to set up the cremation. With no mention that we would have any issues the mext day. So we contacted them this morning to schedule an appointment, and they informed us that due to a planned IT outage they could not see us in person, however they would take our information, and would see us another day this week. Given the circumstances, we couldn't put off setting up arrangements, and we notified them that we would be choosing another crematorium. After we made arrangements with another facility, the director contacted National Cremation to coordinate picking up my mom's body, and they I formed him they would refuse to release her until a 400 dollar fee was paid to them. Essentially stating they were holding her hostage.its illegal in the US for any funeral or Cremation facility to hold a deceased body due to unpaid fees. We offered to pay half the total, and they refused. So I eventually called them back and threatened to call an attorney and contact Florida state police if the next communication from them was anything other then them releasing my mother's body to the crematorium we had chosen. Eventually they called to notify us they would release her. But this place is extremely predatory, and unprofessional. And not only that, they are abusing grieving families by trying to hold loved ones hostage to get some sort of payment out of them. I wouldn't recommend anyone try to set up services with them. They don't care about the human beings that are grieving, or their deceased loved ones dignity. They only care about putting another dollar in their pockets, by any means necessary. I've seen better Moral Buisness practices from the local Crack dealer on the street corner.

Greenwood Cemetery is a historic cemetery just east of the downtown Orlando, Florida area. The…read morecemetery was established in 1880. Prior to 1880, the people who resided in the Orlando, Florida area had no permanent burial location. Eight residents of the area purchased twenty-six acres of land for a cost of $1,800. Greenwood Cemetery has since grown to over eighty acres. The cemetery has many of Orlando's past prominent citizens buried there, including multiple Orlando mayors. One area of Greenwood Cemetery is the heartbreaking section known as Babyland and is the resting spot of children who passed away under the age of five. Greenwood Cemetery offers tours usually around Halloween and there are plenty of ghost stories. One humorous story is that of Fred Weeks. Mr. Weeks was a northern businessman who was swindled by three men who sold him useless swamp land and billed it as prime real estate. Weeks responded by buying a piece of land close to Greenwood Cemetery and erected a tombstone with the three men's name on it and the biblical verse, "A certain man went down from Jeruand fell among thieves." The men bought the land back from Weeks. But Weeks was not done with these less than honorable men. Upon his mausoleum in Greenwood Cemetery, he had the men's names inscribed along with the biblical verse again. It is said that Weeks haunts the graveyard, as do countless other restless spirits. Greenwood Cemetery is an important part of the history of Orlando and definitely worth a trip.

I had called Don about a quote for cremation services because my husband was receiving hospice care. Don took the time to explain the details of cremation and answered all my questions, which helped me to make my decision to use his services. Then, after my husband passed away in Feb. 2024, the hospice nurse called him for me and Don quickly arranged for someone to come out and remove my husband's body -- even though it was at night. He kept me informed as to when he would mail the death certificates, and when he would hand-deliver my husband's ashes to me, which he did with the utmost care and respect.
