Old and peaceful…read more The North Falmouth Burying Ground was established in 1804 and hasn't accepted new customers in a long, long time. Most of the gravestones and memorials are simple and look like they were all carved from the same quarry. Not a lot of variety here, no obelisks or huge crypts, just a whole lot of plain and simple stones with a few larger and more elaborate gravestones scattered around. Many of the stones are well worn and difficult to read, no surprising considering the soft stones and harsh Cape Cod weather. The old graveyard is quiet and peaceful and a nice reflective place to walk around. Lots of plants and trees growing between the gravestones and the entire area is well maintained and quite attractive. A nice cemetery that gives a glimpse of a simpler and less complicated time.

I always come in with my flowers to the funeral home and I always make a meal for the family for after the week they are very accommodating about putting it in the refrigerator if it's a cool meal or on the in the kitchen if it's hot meal and making sure the family I was accommodated when it's over. This time they had chocolates in the entryway where people sat and relaxed and talked with other family members etc. like a calling type room they had boxes of chocolates which are apparently the deceased favorite. I thought that was extremely thoughtful thing to do.

I highly recommend him . He was kind , asked questions about deceased ,what were his likes /dislikes , what he did in life and what was special about him.

Our local one came in with the cheapest cremation costs. A friend recommended Casper and it was almost half the cost from what our family funeral home quoted us. That was with a discount as well! I called Casper about 2 months beforehand and they were very detailed and provided all the info that was needed. I had multiple phone calls with them and they were able to assist me even though I was in California. I mostly spoke with Jake and Colton during this process. When I arrived Saturday was the only day I could go down and we had a snowstorm the day prior. Roads were pretty bad and they were able to accommodate me even though they had a service going on. Parking can be a nightmare there, I parked a few blocks away near a barber shop. I would recommend this place to everyone!! I was truly blown away by their service and empathy.

Not a big cemetery but one that seems more spacious that the average 19th century graveyard because the graves aren't crushed together. Many of the older stones are getting difficult to read but I did see a couple from the 1820s. Most of the memorials are simple with only a couple of larger and more elaborate ones. The Falmouth Poorhouse was located near the old graveyard and most of the unfortunate people that lived and died there were buried with only a number on their grave. However some volunteers recently searched the old records and found names for many of the poorhouse deceased and placed a small memorial in their honor. Just a little graveyard that has a whole lot of history and memories. A simple cemetery that reflects the simple lives of the people of this area.
