It's just a lovely plot of land. One thing I am also always struck by is just how much history is here. This is an old cemetery and there are some lovely ornate headstones. There are gravestones dating as far back as the late 1800s which is just astonishing. It really just connects you with the past and those who lived here long before you were even born. There's something very calming about that.

Wasn't a good experience. The week before my mom died I called them and asked what I needed to do--…read moreor could expect. I also asked about a pre-paid funeral policy she believed she had purchased. They said they would check for it-- and call me back the next day with information. Never heard back. A week later Hadley's picked my mom up from assisted living-- I kind of expected a phone call at that time. The next day I called-- and yep, they had her. They scheduled an appointment to meet two days later, again saying they would check on her policy. . When we arrived-- it was obvious she hadn't checked on policy-- left room several times to check here and there and call people. The rest of the meeting not much was presented-- I had to ask about clothes-- graveside- obituary. They took her handwritten obit-- I offered to type up and bring back-- but they said they would handle it. I wrote a check-- and we were gone. No graveside, but they said it would be several hundred more if we wanted to stand near grave when she was put in the ground. Without the extra money we had to stay at road. Well-- obit was not completed-- called several days later and they said they were still working on it. We were anxious to get in paper-- so I cancelled them and typed it up and submitted myself to newspaper. Took me less than 30 minutes. At cemetery-- cemetery staff let us get right up to the casket, and even gave us a few minutes. No need for an extra fee. Later we checked with Smiths in Exeter if she had pre-paid there -- and was just mistaken. They were wonderful-- gave us numbers to call with state insurance commission to check on a policy. Went out of their way with suggestions. And we were able to find it as just a regular life insurance policy-- although she was sure it was held by Hadley's. It was a simple for Hadley's. We had church service with no casket-- no viewing. But a bit frustrating how little they did -- didn't go an inch out of their way for anything. We won't be using them again.

For on 12/19 /2015 I received from owner, Karen Franzen copies and a handwritten note with the names and dollar amount of coverage from two policies belonging to my dad. Then on 01/05 /2016 we notified Dopkins Funeral Home in Dinuba that we would be needing my dad's body to be picked up, once again coverage was verified. About 5 or 6 hours later we were ready for them to come. So again we called, only to be told that one of the policies had expired. Obviously staff members failed in doing their job. It is without question that their inaccuracy of providing such critical information should not be mistaken. For in doing so, my Dad's funeral services were not as we had hoped and planned. It's not like we can have another funeral again to give him what he truly deserved. Instead of comfort in helping us to start healing we felt more pain to say the least.

They said they would go out to the cemetery by a certain date.... That never happened, I had to call to get updates. By the end of October 2024. They finally went out there but only did 25% of the I paid for. When I called to inquire about it, I was told we would have to wait until March 2025 because they don't work on headstones during the winter months. March and April 2025 came and went. After several time of calling to get an update I sent them an email requesting a refund. Two days later they show up to do the work. When I finally got a hold of someone I was told it was some girl that was working there that messed up on the order. They took no accountability for their lack of communication and commitment as a vendor. I will never give them my business ever again. If you do be ready to be doing all the follow up and making them do the work that you pay for... with a surprise of an increase in the quote the give you.
