Greenwood Cemetery is a historic cemetery just east of the downtown Orlando, Florida area. The…read morecemetery was established in 1880. Prior to 1880, the people who resided in the Orlando, Florida area had no permanent burial location. Eight residents of the area purchased twenty-six acres of land for a cost of $1,800. Greenwood Cemetery has since grown to over eighty acres. The cemetery has many of Orlando's past prominent citizens buried there, including multiple Orlando mayors. One area of Greenwood Cemetery is the heartbreaking section known as Babyland and is the resting spot of children who passed away under the age of five. Greenwood Cemetery offers tours usually around Halloween and there are plenty of ghost stories. One humorous story is that of Fred Weeks. Mr. Weeks was a northern businessman who was swindled by three men who sold him useless swamp land and billed it as prime real estate. Weeks responded by buying a piece of land close to Greenwood Cemetery and erected a tombstone with the three men's name on it and the biblical verse, "A certain man went down from Jeruand fell among thieves." The men bought the land back from Weeks. But Weeks was not done with these less than honorable men. Upon his mausoleum in Greenwood Cemetery, he had the men's names inscribed along with the biblical verse again. It is said that Weeks haunts the graveyard, as do countless other restless spirits. Greenwood Cemetery is an important part of the history of Orlando and definitely worth a trip.

Ms. Earline from jab designs met with us at our home which was very impressive because we were grieving and barely had the strength to do much. Her presence was comforting and supportive and she understood exactly what we were experiencing as a family. I was very particular with my vision and she executed with no hesitation and in a timely manner. She thoroughly went through the program with us and made some wonderful suggestions. She far exceeded our expectations when we received the proof and added so many nice personal touches to the final program. More importantly, she even dropped them off to us in the middle of the night to ensure we would have them on time for the funeral service. Hence, I just want to wholeheartedly thank Ms. Earline, her staff, and jab designs for creating such an exquisite keepsake for our family, friends, and loved ones. We highly recommend her services because of her professionalism, attention to details, and impressive finished product.
