This is a beautiful setting however the courtyards are not maintained. I visit weekly and the same dead flowers are still on the ground after 2 months in the courtyard. The benches are filthy, if you plan on sitting I suggest you bring a cushion. I mentioned the lack of care to a groundskeeper who stated he was cleaning and picking up the trash that very day but when I returned the same dead flowers and plants were still on the ground. Hopefully, they will get around to hosing down the courtyards, benches, and getting rid of all the dead flowers on the ground. The grass areas seem to maintained much better.

Nice quiet place to come and visit with my Mom. I went a few weeks ago after not being there in years only to find there was no vase at her crypt. There were some nice groundskeepers that were able to get me a vase so I could put flowers for my Mom

This place is a hidden gem if you want a quiet space for private reflection or meditation. It's close by but magically hidden from the main roads. Well-maintained.

My mothers relatives from Italy are buried here. They have one of the very first plots. I visit several times a year. Such a peaceful, serene and beautiful property. Of course it is fun to see feral kitties roaming around. Grounds keepers are respectful and very thoughtful, if you are spending time with loved ones.

not too sure who Farher Willis Egan is (may he rest in peace) but I am certain if you go during there normal business hours and ask a helpful staff member, they would be more then happy to assist you. everytime I had a question, even though it seemed ridiculous, I asked and they always helped me. grandma has been buried here since 1987 so as you can imagine I have been coming here for quite some time now. as weird as it sounds, I love this cemetery! it's peaceful and beautiful and a nice place to go and clear your head and gain some perspective which I always do after sitting on grandmas grave and having one of our chats

There is no such thing as ghosts, only demons. Why is it people only facinnated in death and demons, how about eternal life and angels. That's why the sinners are spiritually discerned. Only through Christ Jesus can you be saved, have you given your life to Jesus as your lord and savior?
