That is a very nice and helpful service for us since we do plan to split ashes at some point. They also provided us with the death certificates quickly, which was so helpful, as well. It was such a simple and straightforward process, which is so appreciated. Thank you to those who helped us through this difficult process.

My father chose this cemetery for his final resting place. My initial thoughts upon my first visit…read moreto Oaklawn were that much of it looked unkempt, but I have given them leeway on that for now considering it was Winter. Hopefully, the grounds will appear better once the weather improves. I do have to say that while some areas looked a mess, the Orthodox section was well-maintained for the most part. It is a beautiful spot complete with painted icons near the woods and a creek. I can see why my dad wanted to be placed here. The staff seemed to be kind and professional during the selection of the plot. I was disappointed that the downpours of rain on the morning of my father's funeral kept us from gathering at the burial site, but we were given use of the chapel indoors for the final rites said over him. The men working the grounds that day were polite and let us keep watch as they placed my father into his vault and then into the ground. It was quite muddy so I am sure it was not an easy task. Oddly, as we entered the cemetery in our funeral procession, there was a vault right in the middle of one of the lanes headed toward the chapel. It was a strange sight none of us had witnessed before. Again, slack is being given on that considering the elements that day as well as being told by a friend that once worked at a cemetery that it happens once in a while. I am a bit nervous because of some of my observations combined with the other reviews and photos here. I will be making more treks to the cemetery for sure so I will be back to update my review as necessary.

Having recently buried three family members in Fort Wayne, we are unfortunately familiar with what to expect from professional and compassionate funeral services. Our experience here, however, was exceptionally poor. The director did not greet us with a handshake, nor did she offer even basic courtesies such as water or coffee. When we requested a service date of June 13th, she declined without checking availability, stating we would need to choose Friday, Sunday, or the following week. After leaving the room multiple times, she later returned to admit she had been looking at the wrong calendar and that the date was actually open--but still claimed she could not accommodate the size of our gathering. We asked if the mother could view her son prior to embalming. She declined, stating this was not allowed and that she was unsure of his condition, and told us visitation would not be possible until Saturday. We inquired about completing an assignment of benefits with the insurance company to avoid paying out of pocket. She stated they do not offer this option, instead using a third-party service that charges a 6% fee. She informed us that Marion County charges $20 per death certificate; we later learned the actual cost is $17.50. She quoted $500 for the body transfer from the forensic center, yet we were later told the charge would be $350. During one of her repeated absences from the room, we contacted another funeral home. They were able to meet with us within 20 minutes. Within 30 minutes of our arrival, they had already arranged to bring our loved one into their care and begin preparations so his mother could see him the following day. The difference in service was profound. We were greeted with compassion--a hug, handshake, and refreshments. There was no upselling of services such as death certificates or transfers. They were also able to complete an assignment of benefits directly with the insurance company, allowing costs to be covered without additional fees or out-of-pocket expenses. They lost out in an over 20K transaction. In a time of grief, families deserve empathy, transparency, and professionalism. Unfortunately, our experience here fell far short of those expectations.
