From the time I was born until my rebellious fifteenth birthday I went to church here. Several times a year I visit the graves of family and church folks who were instrumental in my Christian upbringing. There are 799 documented burial sites here. The folks who were laid to rest at this place have an indelible place in my memory and heart as I knew a lot of them. Cherokee Creek Baptist Church is doing a wonderful job!

Stopped by this cemetery today out of curiosity. Just wanted to see if it had been neatened up…read more And yes it has! The grass cutting and weed eating are immaculate. Because this is a place of respect it reflects on-the church that owns it. Kudos to Arrowwood Baptist Church! Well done!

The cemetery has been well cared for. It's definitely not the largest one I've ever visited but…read moreit's obvious that these folks honor the earthly remains of their loved ones who have crossed over. I did see some relatively old gravesites and some newer ones. This cemetery lists two hundred forty seven burial records. I'm not certain that I saw that many though.

I had to go back to Blakely Funeral Home at 1:00 pm. The funeral service for my late brother in law…read morewas today. Two days in a row at a place I don't particularly care for is a bit nerve wracking. The service itself ( like the perfectly orchestrated visitation yesterday ) was likewise executed to perfection! Each staff member of this place knew their part by heart and it was amazing. A truly gifted pastor named Reverend Tommy Wright delivered the main message. Another lay person also gave an uplifting speech and provided Holy Scripture as his reference. Blakely Funeral Home performed beyond excellent! Of course I highly recommend them in your time of need.

My father passed recently and Blakely Funeral Home cared for all the arrangements. Ashby, the…read moredirector/co-owner, took care of everything and it was beautiful. Everything was orchestrated perfectly from the visitation, to the service to the graveside ceremony and military send-off. I've sadly attended a number of funerals but this ceremony was, by far, the most memorable and flawlessly executed. Ashby is also an accomplished singer as was demonstrated with him singing "Give Me Jesus". Super job. Joel and Linda Buice; Elmira, New York.

A picture of the marker was provided via email. Once the granite stone was completed, it was delivered to Chesnee SC. site. We received a call saying that they could not accept the stone marker. The marker is a higher quality stone with lasered print and picture. All their reasons for declining the stone were all ready stated to Carrie before ordering. I do not trust this company and they are very deceptive in dealing with the customer. I would not want any of my loved ones buried there.

This was the first stop on my little Yelp tour today. I was specifically in search of the gravesite…read moreof an old coworker and friend. I actually found it without much effort. Along side of him is his interned wife. There are 228 documented memorials here. The cemetery was in excellent condition and it was obvious that this church is involved with its care.
