We walk there a lot I go bird watching frequently there I have a lot of Family there. So it has always been a place to visit since the 1960s for me and even earlier than that for my parents and grandparents It holds a lot of history and also memories for me No matter how horrible it has been treated by previous owners we always made several trips there every year. At least weekly I'm hoping it is getting better care by current owners It deserves it. This is a Historical Landmark and deserves the best as many still come here.

If you go onto their website it is very informative with regards to what you are allowed to leave behind on loved ones markers, how long they leave flowers out before collecting them as well as what to do if you have a headstone in need of repair. It's an extremely peaceful area, away from any major freeway noise and as it's veterans and their loved ones buried here it's nice to see how well everything is preserved and respected.

I have attempted to visit Sheffield Cemetery on several occasions when in the neighborhood; which…read moreis usually on a Saturday while on a taco run. The gates have always been locked, I assume because of the Jewish Sabbath. My visit yesterday on Memorial Day was successful for entering but slightly unusual. Most cemeteries on Memorial Day are filled with families visiting graves and decorating the tombstones and lawn with flowers and ornaments - not here. I was the only soul on site for the 40+ minutes I wandered amongst the 5500 graves. Even more puzzling; was besides the small American flags at the graves of veterans, there was ZERO decorations in the entire Cemetery. No people, and no tacky plastic flowers or broken wind chimes; just a well manicured lawn with tightly packed tombstones in perfect rows for my isolated inspection. The oldest graves are early 20th century, so nothing too ancient and no one of historical relevance that I could detect in an on-line search. I wandered the lonesome resting grounds alone under a gray overcast sky with low dark clouds while multiple freight trains rumbled along the viaduct just south of the perimeter fence. The Hebrew writing, the stars of David ever present and the line of WWII casualty / veteran graves in the back west corner all triggered emotions of sorrow that I have not felt at other final resting grounds, even though I didn't have any personal connection to anyone buried there. Having just bought tickets for the upcoming Auschwitz exhibit coming to town, I was certainly attuned to the somber reminder of what many of these people beneath my feet had fled from or watched with horror from personal connections. A moment in time that I'll always remember and could never duplicate.

This is a Jewish cemetery by the railroad tracks in KS. We stumbled on it by accident while we were…read morelooking for another cemetery. It was getting dark when we arrived, but when we pulled up to the front of the gates, the lovely and interesting caretaker, allowed us to take a few minutes to look around. She was quite the odd duck and chattered on endlessly, as though she had not had any visitors for a long, long time. She allowed us to not only drive around the very compact, very tightly packed holy grounds, she was kind enough to look around the newly renovated holy buliding on the premises. By tradtion, in most Jewish cemeteries, the headstones are packed very closely together and and are all looking in the same direction. The older the headstones, the more likely the names, dates and thoughts are written in Hebrew. One strange note....as we drove up to the gates, the sun had already started to down and it was cold. Out of literally NOWHERE, a little boy about 10 years old, rode his bike up to my husband and asked "Are you guys going inside?" My husband replied that we were if the caretaker would let us in and asked him what he was doing outside in such a desolate area. The boy had big dark eyes and black hair, a ratty hoodie and an even rattier dirt bike. He didn't answer my husband but as the caretaker came up to the gate, she saw him to and yelled, "You can't come in, go around." At which point my husband turned to look at the boy and say he was sorry, he couldn't come in with us, and the boy had vanished! This is a cemetery surrounded by railroad tracks and a busy train yard....it was very odd indeed.

You get what you pay for with this place. When my FIL died they said his brother(who I'll call D)…read morecame in and paid for all services and that my FILs ashes would be ready to be picked up that next week. When those days came and went and we didn't get any phone calls we called them to see what is up. They apologized and said that it was the wrong uncle D (same first name) and it was another family member that was paid for, not my FIL, all while giving us the first and last names of some other family they were doing services for durring this time. They told us for the inconvenience we could have the $20 death certificate for free. We gave them the benefit of the doubt. Since we unexpectedly needed to pay $1000 we needed two days for our bank to transfer funds so we asked if that would delay the cremation process. We were told that it would NOT delay the cremation process and that my FIL would again be ready for pick up in a few days. The next week after still not ever getting a single phone call or courtesy call we called back AGAIN to see why he wasn't ready. We were told he hadn't even been cremated yet as we hadn't paid...if we knew it needed sent we would have paid it the first week. It took FIVE times of them telling us he would be ready before I was actually able to pick up the ashes. When I was told my FIL was ready to pick up I was never given a time or appointment. When I showed up I had to sit in the car with my 1 year old for 35 minutes because he still wasn't even there... of course after mentioning all this to the owner he, like stated before me, did not take responsibility. I was told his rececptionist didn't tell us any of that and that that didnt happen, and that because he "trains his staff so well" he "knows it wasn't a mistake on their end". He had some sticky note with "9-2" written on it and said that he wasn't there because it wasn't my appointment time and that's my fault. He did let me know that payment before cremation was in the fine print we signed, which of course is our fault for not reading, yes, but the fact that we obviously didnt know that and specifically asked and was told it wouldnt delay the process was so wrong. My FIL layed in a freezer for 2 weeks before he was finally ready 15 days later. The owner also went on to tell me information about the previous Google reviews and how he's in a lawsuit with them and why..not sure about that but either way he was giving out MORE INFORMATION about other people that he did services for! If I knew he would tell me that much about others I wouldn't have trusted him with our family member or our family information! Also the "Urn" we paid for was just a thin black plastic box with their sticker on it.. Aaannnndddd...que the denial response
