Susan answered all my questions as late as 9:00 PM ET [we are on Central Time], and really helped keep my family in N. Alabama in synch with the arrangements being handled locally by a family member in Fairborn for my sweet, precious Mom-in-Law's funeral which was held May 11, 2023. Thank you, Susan! She also helped me track down 2 floral arrangements my work [who so generously and kindly] provided for the service. She is poised, polished, helpful and responsive, and has a lovely manicure by the way! She arranged for us to pick up one of the arrangements at the funeral home proper after the graveside service at Dayton National Cemetary and the man who helped me at the funeral home was very kind, friendly, and helpful. Belton-Stroup handled my Father-in-Law's funeral in Feb. 2012 and my sweet Mother-in-Law, who arranged his service, had zero complaints and everything went smoothly [both at the funeral home service and graveside at Dayton National Cemetary. Thank you John and Susan, and Belton-Stroup for your detailed and professional help during a sad and stressful time.

Among others, I found the final resting places of the Wright Brothers with their family, and first Lieutenant Patterson, after whom the Wright-Patterson Air Force base are named, along with Charles Kettering (as in the Dayton suburb Kettering), and humor writer Erma Bombeck. The grounds are immaculate, the markers are thoughtfully maintained and the whole place feels like a quiet blend of history and reflection that rewards anyone who takes the time to wander. Climbing towards the upper ridge gives you one of the best surprises here, a clear view of the Dayton skyline rising in the distance through the trees, which adds a nice sense of place to the visit. Woodland Cemetery is large enough to explore without feeling overwhelming, and the mix of shade, rolling hills, and historic figures makes it a genuinely enjoyable stop whether you're here for local history or just a peaceful walk.

The place is very lovely especially during the Fall as the colors from the trees is simply incredible. The roadways in the 'big money' (yes, this is what i refer to the original section as.) have been getting worse as we have been checking in. My favorite spot is on top of the hill where there's a stunning view of Downtown Dayton. Word to the wise, if you're there in your car inside the facility and it's getting close to them closing the gates. Maybe plan on leaving like 15-20mins before they close? Otherwise, you'll have this creepy white pickup truck follow g you around. I know they need you out, but they have learned not to come up and politely ask, they just sit and watch from afar. If you're in to history? Look up the tours in their website. They are incredible. Always informative and you get a ton of stories about the background of some of the folks who are buried here.

My family has been more than patient with the staff and all we have expected is for contracts to be upheld in a timely manner.

What is green burial? That is the first thing the Hospice social worker asked as she offered to…read moreassist in finding a funeral home to take mom's body. I could describe it, but did not realize finding a funeral home knowledgeable of the process would be such a task especially at 2 am. The social worker and I Googled a few places and waited for call backs. One location called back and were very derogatory about the cemetery that my mother had chosen, which quickly left an extremely sour taste in my mouth. However, though they were negative and answered very few of my questions, the funeral director did mention there is a Green Burial Council that certifies funeral homes in green burial and their website has a list of certified funeral homes across the country. As we scrolled, we found Routsong. The social worker called as I being the nerd I am looked for online reviews. They were a funeral home I wasn't familiar with nor had anyone in the family used and at 2am I definitely couldn't make a Facebook post for intel as mom needed a place to go ASAP. From the initial conversation to handling the final payment, Routsong has been a godsend. Through the process of planning my mother's celebration of life, I worked closely with Sam Routsong. I found him to be extremely helpful, personable, and knowledgeable. He also helped with working with the insurance companies and cemetery on my behalf, which took a lot off my plate! Planning a memorial is akin to planning a wedding there are so many minute details that can easily be overlooked, but Sam made sure nothing was overlooked and communication was flowing. This was especially helpful as I can be a little OCD when it comes to planning things. He made sure I was able to visit the florist and gave the final ok on the flowers for the memorial. He "officiated" mom's grave side service and he was tremendously attentive to myself and the guest at mom's actual memorial... even to the point where people were like "do I smell cookies baking?" And they did and were served warm cookies and other refreshments as the visitation progressed. Even everyone who attended the memorial were impressed by the service and venue. I cannot speak highly enough of all that Sam and the Routsong family did for me during this difficult time. And I know you want to know the answer to the million dollar question!!! COST... Though I've never paid for a funeral nor memorial before, I found them to be extremely reasonable and accommodating. Whether you have a set budget or the sky's the limit they want to ensure your "vision" is executed without "burying" you in debt. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Routsong family when it comes time for your loved one to transition!

The operator curiously asked me why I would need a confirmation email, but nonetheless assured me one would be sent. It never was. Yesterday, I receive a phone call from Rollins, four days prior to my move. A voicemail was left to call them back. Despite the obvious urgency of this phone call, which at the time I was unaware of, the voicemail did NOT inform me that they would no longer be able to move me. Rollins called me again today to deliver this abysmal news. No compensation for the severe inconvenience was offered. "Sorry" does not amend this situation in the least. Luckily, I found another mover, but for $300 more and one day after the date I intended to move, thus further exacerbating an already stressful situation. Avoid these flakes. Shame on them.
