And the price is quite high, over $4000 just for a simple burial of cremains (cremation done out of state, not by Evergreen Waschelli) in a plot that the family already owns.

Dad has been in an unmarked grave for over a month and a half. Not even a temporary placard while the headstone is shipped in. Mike Betts wants us to think it's the funeral home that's responsible for placing a temporary placard, which isn't true. The headstone was made in advance, it's been sitting in a warehouse since the 1980s. Mike Betts can't remember our recent meeting when he ordered the delivery, and has no shipping data at all. We got a check in the mail because we were overcharged on their services. The check was written payable to my Dad. Wouldn't the cemetery know he is dead and he can't cash checks??? Now it's another errand to fix their latest screw up. As a grieving family, we thought Holyrood cemetery was going to handle Dad's burial arrangements with grace and precision. We are disappointed. We had to call again to ask about the headstone delivery and the gentleman who answered the phone was so confused about their record keeping system, and he asked how to spell my Dad's name three times! Write it down once and remember!

Snoqualmie Valley Funeral Home helped my family immensely when my father passed away. We were…read moreshocked because the death was very sudden and we were completely unprepared. No funeral plans, nothing to help us decide what to do and we had to make all of these decisions in the midst of coping with the grief of a sudden, unexpected death. They treated us, and my father's memory, with the utmost respect and tact. Upon visiting the funeral home, it was what you would expect from a funeral home - immaculately clean, tasteful yet serious decor; we were greeted at the door by two very compassionate, professional and sympathetic men. We were able to take our time and talk among ourselves as a family. They even had a large, comfortable couch where my mother and I, and my mother's best friend, could sit together so we could hug and hold her hands while we discussed the funeral options. We did not feel at all rushed, and the thing that stood out the most was that they did not take advantage of our grief, they did not try to sell us any services that we didn't need. The urn that my mother liked was actually one of their cheaper ones (a simple lacquered wooden cube) and they did not try to sell us anything more expensive. If you are in the unfortunate position of looking for a compassionate funeral home, I would recommend this one.

After our conversation we took a stroll around looking at the different sites available, found a nice spot and went inside to do the paperwork. We were in and out in a hour!

Because it's off the beaten path, there's never a ton of foot traffic and usually very few visitors at one time, making it feel semi-private. If you're leaving flowers, there's plenty of places to get water and trash bins to dispose of anything leftover. Remember to clean up after yourself to make things easy for the groundskeepers and so that the park continues to be in pristine shape in the future. If you're unsure of the dos and don'ts, there's signs posted with rules, regulations, hours, and more. Parking isn't a problem and it's pretty flat in case you have any other relatives that are in wheelchairs or walkers. That was one of the main reasons my grandmother chose this place was because of accessibility. Definitely consider if you're looking for nice place for yourself or a relative in the Poulsbo when planning ahead.

I have no qualms with the Woodinville Cemetery itself. After many years of dishevel, new…read moremanagement had transformed it into a beautiful resting place for loved ones who had passed away. It had become one of the lovliest smaller cemeteries around the Puget Sound and Snohomish areas. What I found puzzling though, was the required measurements of the cemeteries headstones. They said that they had specific guidelines to the size. Mine started off in a fairly decent large size, but was literally cut down to much smaller dimensions that I had originally invisioned for my loved ones. It was disappointing, but I just needed to get that headstone made and placed over their grave. Pacific Coast Memorials did a superb job putting it together inspite of the difficult measurements they were given to work with. My husband and son were buried in the same casket and the same plot. After two years of waiting for it to be made, delivered and installed at the cemetery because of Covid, I noticed that so many of the other headstones were bigger. There were even monument size ones here and there. Why did they make me cut back my measurements so drastically? My headstone was swallowed up by hovering ones nearby. I just found out why! It's because we had purchased only one plot. At least they are both buried under a large apple tree....a fruit they mutually loved and a plot that was easily seen from the main street. I can drive by and spot their resting place immediately. All is forgiven!

For Memorial Day, the Daughters of the American Revolution Susan Woodin chapter sponsored an event…read morecalled "Woodinville Pioneers Come to Life!" which was a living tribute to honor some of Woodinville's earliest pioneers laid to rest there. The event was planned from 12 noon til 3pm and kicked off with the local Boy Scouts raising the American flag half mast to honor those Veterans who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their service. The DAR organization had actors dressed in period-piece clothing that were scattered at the grave sites of Woodinville's founding fathers. In full garb, the actors shared the unique history of the pioneer's life they portrayed. Some of the characters I encountered were: Clara Teegarden, Woodinville's first school teacher, Susan Woodin, who founded Woodinville and Seneca Phyllis, a Union Civil War soldier, among many others. The actors did an amazing job staying in character while sharing each of their character's local history. The ladies at the DAR table were great - they welcomed visitors to the cemetery and explained what to expect during their cemetery walking tour. Many flyers were on the table that explained DAR and how to get involved with the organization. If any "future Daughter" was interested in tracing their genealogy back to a potential Revolutionary Patriot, DAR would be available to help. There were many children at the event who were engaged learning about the local history as well.....maybe it was because the DAR had trivia questions for the kids and if they answered correctly, received a cookie loot bag for their efforts. :) Nevertheless, the kids all seemed to have a good time. The Cemetery itself was beautifully manicured and well kept. Not a large piece of land, but I understand that plots are still available for purchase. There were many flowers on headstones and flags due to the holiday. Mother Nature cooperated with sun for most of the afternoon. Limited parking available. A fun and informative afternoon had by all.
