I have even provided them with the PLOT Division, Range and Grave number. The unwillingness in locating her and the threatening, unprofessional behavior of the supervisor are unacceptable. When I requested an update, Jim Gilbert did not provide information but instead warned me that "some people have been waiting more than two years". The statement was clearly designed to intimidate me and implies willful, systemic failure to manage service expectations. They keep making up excuses why they can't locate her, from the maps changing to being too busy. My family wants to know where our relative is buried and tend to the grave. My husband and I have walked around for hours. It is impossible to locate her without their assistance. I have filed complaints with both the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office and the Pennsylvania Cemetery, Cremation and Funeral Association.

It's an outreach of the local American Legion post, and it's a touching tribute to those who served their country. There's a specific Veterans section that is ablaze in red, white and blue because of their efforts. One fascinating feature of the cemetery is the "Do it Yourself" grave section. I've never seen this in other cemeteries, so I find it unique and worth investigating. The grave sites seem well visited, and they are very personalized, each one.

I have no idea who he was supposed to look like...definitely not my Dad. And his hair looked like he just got out of bed!The unfriendly personnel offered cold respect to family and friends. The Pastor we chose had a lovely service before the presentation of Military Honors. At that point, they wheeled the casket in to the chapel area which felt very disrespectful to my Dad. This was not done in a ceremonial fashion and destroyed the ambiance established by the Pastor. Why not have the casket in the chapel during the eulogy waiting for the Honors? There was no honor or respect. It was awful!
