    Unfortunately, I've had to experience several mortuaries in town in recent years, and I found this…read moreone to be wanting. On the night my father passed, they were superb in coming to get him very late, and they were careful and compassionate about my stepmom's feelings. On this, they get high marks. The next day, however, they were just salesmen. Buy this urn, pay more for upgrades... They went through the cremation checklist with little of the compassion we had seen the night before. Just, "get'er done." They were not rude or anything, but in this industry, grieving people need a little extra hand-holding and overt concern for their well-being. The cremation was performed well, and they provided an adequate container for Dad's ashes. We did not purchase one after all. The cost was about what I expected, and they seem to have performed the basic functions in a professional way. If we had a choice, in the future I would go elsewhere. This is not awful, but not great.

    My father recently passed in a tragic car accident and my aunt helped us find a funeral home. We…read moregot so lucky that she picked Alma Funeral Home. Manuel and his team since the beginning were so kind and patient. Manuel did not judge and communicated with us through the entire process. The service that we had there was simple but beautiful and Manuel and his team did everything to make sure my dad had a great service. I cannot recommend them enough. Manuel did not try to sell us unnecessary services and was empathetic the entire time. While it is hard to go through planning a funeral, you can rest assured that Manuel and his team will make the planning easier and will do everything that they can to give your loved one a beautiful service.

    The earliest memory I have of this place was when my grandma passed. I've attended a few funerals…read moreat Greenland Cemetary. I appreciate all the different roads leading into different directions, but the roads sure are small. And if a car or cars are parked on the side of these roads, then it's a tight squeeze. If there is more than one burial at once, it may be hard to know where to go if say you're coming from the chuch or from elsewhere so I thought a RIP "name" sign would be helpful in front of the burial site. It would've helped me, I just followed a car until I saw a group of people, and then I spotted my best friend. The grass is very uneven, and if you're wearing heels, please be careful! During the burial, a staff member spoke, and he was very courteous. I appreciated his tone and the way he spoke very much. Im sure everyone did! It was a beautiful way to say goodbye!

    As I contemplate this review, my heart is full of sadness, as well as my mind. Why? Because every…read moretime I visit this cemetery, I see people walking their DOGS. Why do that? I want to know because I have no clue. AND, WHY does Greenlawn continue to allow this unacceptable 'dog walking' on SACRED property? Why do I say 'unacceptable' and use the word SACRED? Because dogs urinate and defecate everywhere and yes, even on graves of the dearly departed, (and it appears that the owners of the dogs are not picking up after them). Or, Is it because nothing is UNACCEPTABLE nor SACRED any longer? They say "actions speak louder than words" and the fact that there are no signs on the grounds stating "No dogs allowed" SAYS IT ALL. My next thought is 'why hasn't anyone complained to this funeral home about this?' Maybe folks have and it has fallen on 'deaf ears?' GREENLAWN! Keep the grounds GREEN. Stop allowing dogs on this sacred property to disrespect and/or desecrate graves and the grounds. Show family members (and others) of the departed YOU CARE enough to communicate that 'dog walking' on cemetery grounds is unacceptable. Just when I thought society could not go any lower, it appears that it most certainly has reached another all-time low. DOGS just DO NOT belong on cemetery property...because no matter where they are they urinate and defecate which is completely unacceptable on cemetery grounds. Right?
