The earliest tombstone dates back to 1842 and is the final resting place of mayors, Civil War soldiers, about 800 Yellow Fever epidemic victims, free and slave, black and white. Very few burials have taken place here in the last 70+ years. No more plots are sold, all are already spoken for. The cemetery is owned and maintained by the city. The cemetery is in fantastic condition and is well worth a tour. The fifth mayor of Shreveport is laid to ret here as well as Jacob Bodenheimer, the first Jewish settler in Northwest Louisiana. Martha Bowie-Steritt, sister of Alamo hero Jim Bowie. Isabel Butler-Williamson, the great-granddaughter of Martha Washington and step-great-granddaughter of George Washington.

Now they won't make it right. When I called I spoke with Connie Matthews and she was nasty and hung up on me with no resolution to my issue. These people are not very intelligent people at all. It's dysfunctional from the top down. They have no clue how to care for your loved ones remains. Don't use this service they are horrible and unwilling to correct their gross mistake.

My Momma died without her funeral planned…read more My cousin used Aulds after her husband died and recommended them. We went in completely lost and not knowing where to start. Mr Robert Matthews met with us, gave us lots of information, took a lot of time with us and answered all of our questions. He never rushed us or pressured us in any way. He offered suggestions but left the decisions completely up to us. I also want to say we picked out a very pretty casket and we were all very happy with Momma's hair, make-up and dress. They really did a good job for her. The prices were very reasonable and they even helped us on many of them. I recommend that you pre-plan your final needs so you're family knows your exact wishes and they don't have to make these decisions at such a hard time. Either way I HIGHLY recommend Aulds. I believe they will take care of your Loved One and family just as they did mine.

We were and still are speechless. It is the worst experience I have ever had. I wouldn't send a DOG to Osborne Funeral Home. BEWARE OF THE MOST UNCARING AND INDIFFERENT STAFF - AFTER ALL OF THE HORRID - WHAT THEY CALL - 'ACCOMMODATIONS' WERE MADE, WHICH WERE NOTHING. We are still reeling.

Everyone knows you only get ONE chance to make a first impression!…read more I have a very important event to attend at the last moment, and I need to make a solid first impression myself. I googled dry cleaners with pick-up/drop-off service. From my first inquiry phone call, yesterday, to the gentleman who answered my questions (Walter Johnston), to the, SAME-DAY, Route Driver (Cameron?) meet-up/pick-up, to the--- NEXT DAY (No additional fee---RUSH JOB)... Azalea's first impression is stellar, in my book! Not only do the (DECADE-OLD) suits look brand spanking new ( i KNOW where the stains were!) the dress shirt, vest... everything else does too... they were delivered, as promised, the next day!!!!!!!! In FACT... an HOUR AND A HALF BEFORE the promised time. I've been a customer of another company for almost a decade... because my family uses them. I now have my own company of choice... AND at a better price. So far, so good, Azalea! Keep up the superlative work! I'll be back!
