It has a few different areas, indoors where loved ones ashes are kept behind display cases along with memorabilia, photos, and urn, outdoors where there are plaques lining the walls with loved ones names, and out in the grass where plots of various sizes are marked with simple bronzed-tone plaques to full blown mausoleums. The property is shaded by large trees, there almost always seems to be landscapers, but rarely groundskeepers (at least none I can see). I have several loved ones laid to rest here, and have on a few occasions attended mass for All Saints Day. All the events were of varying quality but of similar care; Though personalization of your experience seems endless there are rules that restrict the way one mourns here. On one occasion my mom saw the headstone of her friends beloved mother tossed into someone elses grave while the landscapers tended to the area. Recently, at my brothers grave it became apparent that the ceramic photo that used to be protected by a plastic enclosure had been neglected; the plastic was gone and the ceramic was so cracked and water damaged the photo came right out of the dirt with hardly any effort. The manager offered to replace it so Hopefully thats not a problem anymore. It is usually quiet and somber, but when I laugh no one seems to mind. Dont put live flowers here unless you dont mind them being thrown out come time for the grass to be mowed or unless youre having the memorial that day. I could write a book about the creative decorations people come up with. This location also has banquet rooms, several "churches" with pews, but can also arrange for foldable chairs outside upon request. Overall not at all the worst place to visit, generally treat both the living and the deceased with respect and courtesy save for the one isolated incident.

Sign says they close at 7pm (its 6:25pm). I just called and asked why the gates are closed and was told they can close anytime. MAJOR FAIL!
