We saw some very unique stained glass memorals we've never seen anything like. I'm wondering if this is a new trend. Also wonder how well they will hold up. Everything was very well maintianed.

Even though this is a cemetery it is a happy, joyful review at Christmas time. Not sure how long…read morethey have been doing this but in the month of December there is a memorial tree placed at the entrance to the cemetery for folks to place an ornament on in memory of a deceased love one. We took our own ornaments and placed them on the tree. Since my paternal grandparents are buried there and I had not visited the gravesite since my grandfather died 23 years ago we decided to into the office to get directions to the location of their plot. Ginny was at the information desk and was so very helpful, looking up names of my grandparents as well as other family members who I thought might be buried there. She then showed me on a map where I was headed and gave me specific, detailed printed directions in how to find their plot. She was super nice and helpful and so polite. While in the administration building getting these directions I saw the table of beautiful ornaments the cemetery was providing for folks to place on the memorial tree and they were lovely and supplied at no cost. They did ask that you only take two ornaments. Once we had placed our ornaments on the tree and found my grandparents gravesite we walked around the grounds reminiscing about our deceased love ones. It was a great way to honor them knowing they still live on in our hearts, actions and memories. A good afternoon

After 16 years of a carefree, opulent life, my "fur baby" passed. Because this happened early on a…read moreSunday morning, I thought I would need to wait until Monday before taking her anywhere. We decided against burying her in our backyard because we didn't want any wild animals to dig her up (my heart, soul, or psyche would not have been able to survive that). We called a few places around town to get prices of pet cremation and any other associated services. The man who answered the phone was kind, understanding and soothingly efficient. His already soothing voice became much more empathetic when he found out that I had just lost my pet. He gave me their prices and explained exactly what those cost included. They have different prices based upon how you want the cremation to occur and then upon the weight of the animal. They offer 3 levels of cremation: individual, double and group. Plus, depending upon the level you choose, their prices include a framable certificate, a marvelous, decorative, wooden box for ash storage and memorial display. The individual and double cremation options offer the certificate of authenticity, which states that the ashes that you received are actually from YOUR pet and not from someone else's. In addition, at no extra charge they will ink the paws and nose to put those prints on the certificate. I was completely satisfied with the tentative services and the expected outcome. Once we took my pet to their location, one man received her while another man (Chris) took our information. Although, the man that I talked to earlier on the phone took my information and noted that I wanted the nose and paw prints, Chris did not ask about that service nor did I remember to state it. In my grief-stricken, cloudy mind, I assumed that the information from the earlier phone call would be linked to this intake information. I didn't realize that little omission would return to haunt me. A few days passed and they called to say that my pet was ready for pickup. Quite somberly, I was actually able to drive to get her (I wasn't sure I would be able to do that). A lady greeted me immediately, and ushered me to follow her to the office. There I received a nicely paw-printed recyclable paper bag with a beautiful wooden box and a certificate of authenticity inside the bag. The presentation was really nice. Imagine my hurt when I looked at the certificate and saw no nose or paw prints. When I asked about the omission, the lady told me that she would check to see what happened. After a few minutes, she returned to tell me that they were unable to get any prints from my pet. Her body language was different as she told me this information and I got the impression that she was not telling me the truth. Especially because I know the position that my dog's legs and face were in. Her paws were straight and flat and her nose was big and black. The only way that they couldn't get the ink was if they didn't know to try. While I realize and accept that this was a miscommunication, I would rather have been told the candid truth and not a "canned response" to appease a grieving person. Other than this, I was really pleased with everything else.

The staff is very respectful and forms personal relationships with the grieving family members. They do a great job putting the services and burials together. They take all the family's wishes and turn them into a beautiful, heartwarming ceremony. The funeral home always provides the grieving families with food for the receptions and flowers for the ceremony as a personal way of sending the family their condolences. Most of the funerals in my family (and among friends) have been held here, and we couldn't have asked for anything or anyone better.

I told him also about this song my dad always sang being silly "You'll never find..." and the minister knew right away that it was Lou Rawls. A while later they found me in the visitation and he called me to his office and he wanted to play the song for me. He had it on hand! He asked me if I wanted him to play it while we were exiting the service and I said yes! It was perfect. He even made me a copy of it to take home with me. These folks are wonderful. They also handled my grandmother's death in 2012 and I remember them being excellent then as well.
