Buckminster Funeral Chapel

I have attended many funerals in my lifetime but when attending a service today at Buckminster…read moreChapel I was appalled. Families pay a large sum of money in making arrangements for the care for their loved ones and should expect the funeral director to greet people at the door and be present and visible at all times. No one is comfortable attending a funeral, but they do expect some guidance from a funeral director or staff member to direct them to appropriate seating without infringing on where the family sits. We sat in the rear of the room so as to not violate the family's space but soon found out that nonfamily attendees simply sat wherever they wanted, in areas that should have been reserved. Many family members were not seated at all, especially the many grandchildren and great grandchildren who stood against the wall in the rear of the room where the service was being held. Some of us gave up our seats and seated ourselves in another room but it was so limited [6 seats] many still had to stand. Where were the fold-up chairs? Why did the funeral director allow this to happen? Not only is the funeral home negligent in seating people in an appropriate area but I have always found Buckminster Chapel to not keep up to the standards of the funeral industry as other funeral homes who provide a more superior service to its families and a more up-to-date interior. If I could give Buckminster Chapel zero stars I would.

A mausoleum is on site. Our graveside services were delayed as some of the guests did not arrive at the appointed time. The staff, standing by to complete the burial, were extremely patient with our group and allowed us time to gather after the graveside services without a word even though we were definitely holding them up!

I visited another goodwill store back in April down the street & was very disappointing as their prices were very expensive & they hardly had anything in their store. This is the store to go to!!! I went in hoping that they may have had some Pyrex for sale but didn't find any but walked out with a cat litter box, dish drying pad, old fashion travel iron and a plastic dog food container. The pet stuff I actually got for my Mom's dog & cat. I went in with my friend who was looking for some sheets for his camper bed & he walked out with this super cute small desk & chair for his daughter & a dresser for himself. Those were also reasonably priced. There was a little line that moved kinda slow. There were only 2 cashiers working. I believe they have to manually punch in the prices (I can't remember...lol) so that can make things a little slow.....so don't be in a hurry when stopping in here. In the past I've actually dropped off some donations which was very easy. They had bins on the side of the building that you drop your stuff off in or you could walk it inside next to the bins & drop it off in there. Real quick process.

I would recommend this daycare without hesitation to ANYONE!

The negative post made earlier this week is truly upsetting, as someone who has two children that…read moreare and have gone through this center - and have loved every second of it. From eight weeks old, to five years old, my daughter thrived at Discovery. The same teachers that she had, my son now has. The daycare is as clean as any daycare is going to be. I can tell you, it is more sanitary than my house, with two kids, at the end of a (week) end day with them. SO, how they keep it as clean as they do, with more than two kids in each room - is truly something. As for potty training - I actually give them credit for potty training my kids. My husband always say, "we got lucky!" but really, the teachers did it for us. Positive reinforcement, continual reminders, sticker charts - they did it all to make sure their potty days were successful ones. The staff is hands down the best, and so many have been there for so long. Most who are Moms, also have their kids there in other rooms. That speaks volumes to me. IN addition to that - there are several who have left for college, and come back for summers, or who leave hoping to make more money (because everyone knows how underpaid child education is) and then come back! Everyday, we get a print out and a hand written note about what our kids did that day, if they were happy/sad/sensitive, what they played with, etc. They spend so much time outside, that at tub time every night, we could make our own sandbox :-) In the bigger room, just before Kindergarten, they spend less time outside, but that is because they are preparing them for what lies ahead in Kindergarten! At my daughter's first parent/teacher meeting in Kindergarten - we were told that she is excelling, and far above where she is expected to be at this point, one month into the school year!! Could not be more proud, and owe that thanks to Discovery. Any concern, though there be few, are always thoughtfully addressed by the owner and the staff. The comments that the ratio of children to teachers is high depends on what your opinion is, really. The state has regulations - and they have as many kids as possible to teachers, in order to run a profitable business. Otherwise, why run the business? Discovery - you keep doing you. I'd send my kids there again in a heartbeat, and hope that the "one person who is saved" by the negative post from earlier (jeesh) reads *this* post - and realizes that from a MOTHER, (not a disgruntled employee) you'd be doing your kids, and yourself a favor - to send them to such a great school.

Lichen stones and…read moreold friends The Locust Grove Cemetery is a rather small graveyard located only a short distance from the Marginal Way and the ocean. It's very narrow but does have a bit of length to it. The old graveyard is certainly located in a lovely place. Ogunquit means, "the beautiful place by the sea" in the local Abenaki language and the natives definitely got it right. The graveyard isn't especially old by Maine standards, I didn't see any older than the early 1800's and many were much newer. This is still a cemetery that is taking in new arrivals. Since it is so close to the ocean it gets hammered by strong winds and salt and many of the older stones have lots of that funky yellow lichen stuff that seems to love to grow on gravestones. Definitely gives the memorials a worn and spooky look. Many of the gravestones are unique and as I was walking at dusk toward the back of the long and narrow cemetery I noticed a large German Shepard staring at me. Never a good thing to have a large dog staring at you and this one was frozen as if he was about to attack and take a big bite out of my arse. Turned out that dog was Max and he wasn't real but was a memorial to a man's faithful and loyal friend. The man had his own grave nearby and I guess he wanted Max there with him for eternity. Max was standing next to a really cool bench with his name on it. Not a huge cemetery and not one that isn't shockingly old but a lovely and beautiful place to spend some time. Preferably above ground but being buried here wouldn't be so bad either. Nice to spend eternity with friends.
