    Spawn B died. I…read morecouldn't touch him, see his face until a licensed funeral home claimed his body from the coroner. I wasn't allowed to "identify" him. I wasn't allowed to just stand beside him to verify with my own eyes that my child was dead. When they asked where, Sexy Beast just named what he thought to be a reputable organization with a long history in the community. The transfer went fine. The first issue was that I needed to touch my son. The provider kept telling me that they would decide whether I could touch him or what we could do based on which packages we selected and the condition of his body. I couldn't even get a quick few minutes to just lay eyes on my dead kid until the "viewing" which would be limited to 4 people and 15 minutes and subject to their schedule. There was no deference to the cultural impact of delaying ceremonies. I'm not Christian and that wasn't relevant to *anyone* in the room. In fact, my spiritual practices seemed offensive to the woman helping us. She seemed taken aback that I insisted that there would be physical contact whether she liked it or not. She was insistent that those practices would *have* to be condensed into that 15 minutes and that absolutely no accommodations would be made regarding the number of people in attendance (no religious or spiritual personnel or family) and that we were expected to complete our rituals under her watchful gaze. I paid for TWO viewings. One for the ceremony and ritual preparation for cremation and one for just before cremation. Am I upset that I had to pay? No. I had the money. No problem. I even offered to pay in advance. They insisted that I wait until the day of the "viewing" to do that or until I picked up his ashes. I don't care. My kid is dead and you won't let me see him until I agree to pay you. Take my money. GIVE ME MY SON. After the signing of the paperwork, we discovered that CSK intended to cremate my son in the filthy, bloody clothes that he died in. We asked for his belongings from the coroner and were given a ziplock bag with his wallet and some random pocket litter, but no clothes or boots. Spawn B had been just shuttled around from fridge to fridge like a marked down pork chop in filthy clothes and his boots still on. I know those boots were still on because it took two months in baking soda to get most of the smell out. I called CSK to request his clothes. That's an extra charge. Add it to the bill. We brought the clothes for his cremation with us, as instructed. Spawn B had a child. My Favorite Person. She was one of the four people scheduled to be at the second 15 minute viewing and witnessed cremation. Me. Spawn B's father (Sexy Beast), My Favorite Person, and My Favorite Person's Mom. Fifteen minutes. And they hovered there to make sure we took not a second longer. Remember that I mentioned that I tried to pay the bill when I signed the paperwork? Having them redress my son cost enough to place his account into the "prepay" category. This happened between the time that I offered to pay them and the witnessed cremation. Nobody ever mentioned that there was a particular invoice threshold that would require prepayment. As we were en route, the woman who insisted that I pay later called me to demand that I pay immediately. Did I pay it as we were navigating Spaghetti Junction? Of course. When I asked her what would have happened if I couldn't pay at that moment, she told me that they would have rescheduled the witnessed cremation. With My Favorite Person on her way to see her dead father for the last time, the whole thing would have been rescheduled if I could not have paid the full bill immediately despite *their* insistence that I pay the bill when I picked up my son's ashes. Good thing we had that covered or a child would have had to go through that whole day again. Just a little more arbitrary trauma for a little girl. When we arrived for the witnessed cremation, I was given a big red Biohazard trash bag with my son's reeking clothes and boots in them. They had just cut off my son's favorite hoodie and jeans from his decaying body. They don't actually undress the corpse of your loved one. They just snip off the clothes, toss them in a bag. He was not washed. This was horrific to me; to send him into the fire covered in gravel and blood. I handed them my son. They tossed him in a fridge like leftover spaghetti and forgot about him until the cremation. It felt very much like my son was the least important person to ever enter their care, as if he was just today's trash for the incinerator. My Favorite Person and her Mom quietly exited before the cremation. Sexy Beast and I stayed until Spawn B was shoved into the fire. We were escorted out of the viewing room at exactly the fifteenth minute. So, here's what I learned: Die first; choose any other provider. Especially if you would like your loved one treated with dignity.

    I'm real big on finishing hidden gems and quirky attractions. Especially in my hometown here if…read moreLouisville. Little did I know that this particular one I've probably passed up well over 50 times in my life and had no idea. This family burial plot from the 1850's is surrounded by a bush in the middle of a shopping center parking lot right where the department store shaheens is. Located off Dutchmans lane and Breckinridge in the st Mathews area of Louisville Kentucky. Here is how hidden this place is. The hospitals across the street is where all 4 of my kids were born and where there pediatrician is. Shaheens is the only department store that sells the school uniforms that my daughters private school has. The other surrounding shops and food establishments around it I have visited on multiple occasions. So when I say I've passed this what I thought was just some parking lot landscape over 50 times it might actually be an undersell. The grave site itself has a tiny small entrance with an iron gate and inside it features 4 tall graves up front and small grace behind them that was unfortunately and tragically for an 8 month old. All the grace markers that I could make out is from the 1850's and every name I could read was "Burks". I'm not sure how or why this hidden cemetery came about. I assume that at one point before all this development in honestly one of the busiest sections of the entire city of Louisville this was farmland owned by the Burke's. But I am not sure. Heads up if you are looking for this there isn't a sign or a marker for it. My best advise would to be put the address for shaheens department store on Breckinridge lane and go to the back and look for the random square bushes in the parking lot. The entrance actually faces shaheens parking lot. When I arrived the iron gate was open. I'm honestly not sure if it is normally locked or shut. I imagine there is some sort of hours to it although I'm not sure who maintains it. Someone must though as it Is well taken care of and the graves had fresh flowers an decorations.

    Such an odd location. In a massive shopping area between Red Lobster and Books A Million. You…read morewouldn't even notice it if you weren't looking for it. I looked on line and used Google Earth so I had a general idea of what to expect. The area was owned by the Burks Family as a horse farm. When the property was sold and developed the developers have built the area up into parking and businesses. They have cared for rhe cemetery instead of moving it, and I commend them on that decision. There are five people buried there.   "Located at the corner of Breckinridge Lane & Dutchman's Lane on the C. C. Moore Farm.  Copied Sep 1986 - another listing states " on T. M. Murphy stock farm on Brown's Lane .9 miles from Bardstown Road." 0 Name Dates Notes Burks, James abt 1767 - 25 Oct 1841 married 07 Aug 1823 to Matilda Ross, and had children John, Elizabeth, James, Samuel, Charles, Nannie; in 64th year Burks, Matilda abt 1897 - 16 Jun 1853 wife of James; age 56 years Burks, Charles 31 Jan 1834 - 30 Jun 1855 son of James and Matilda Burks, Samuel  unknown - 07 Apr 1851 in 20th year Burks, Jimmie no dates son of John & Eliza Burks" Part of the above taken from: http://www.kykinfolk.com/jefferson/cems2/burksfamilycemetery.html One Obolisks has fallen over years ago. And it looks like the wall on the inside may have been hit by a car. It would be nice if the property owner would fix the wall and restand the fallen monument. It is kept mowed and the bushes surounding it kept trimmed. Very cool part of history. Info was hard to find.

They had a visitation and set her up in a room to honor her and room to view her. They allowed for her now orphaned sons to honor their mother with friends and family in a clean peaceful environment. I don't know the cost. But the quality of the services was well done. I have been to too many different funerals in the month of December and hope this is the last one I have to say good bye for a final time. Fcfh made this a nice experience set in the golden age that this woman lived in.

After bad experiences and poor communication with two well-known "chain" funeral homes in town, a last-minute web search sent us to Fern Creek Funeral Home and although this was a first for me (having to help plan a visitation and memorial service) I can say that the staff went above and beyond to make the experience special. Gayle and Sarah were honest, tender and patient, plus they made themselves available and helped ease and absorb some stress from our grieving family. Additionally, the facility itself was clean, spacious and provided just what we needed as a space to honor the man we lost. It feels odd writing a review for a service that needed at such a messy time, but for that reason, I felt compelled to share that they were exceptional and came through for our family in need. I wish them well and hope they know how much it meant to me and my family.
