Alta Mesa Memorial Park

We just bought a home in the area. I decided to take a tour of this local cemetery where we were contemplating having our grandmother buried. I was driving around the entirety of the grounds, enjoying the beautiful weather, when I stopped to look at a beautiful tombstone. I put my hazards on. One of their robocop‘s decided to come up behind me, who also immediately put his hazards on - Allied Security. I instantly felt intimidated and unfriendly energy here. It looked like he was going to take a picture of my license plate and/or make a call. It was only 5:45pm and they lock the gates at 6pm. I wasn’t some teenager planning on getting drunk in the cemetery, I was actively seeking a proper place for burial needs. I definitely did not feel like having a conversation with some idiot and having to justify myself! Have completely different thoughts about this place now, will certainly not give them business now! I have experienced much better, friendlier burial places, specifically in Santa Clara on Winchester Blvd PS: This place is also quite unkempt, debris, dead flowers…. Hence the large number of ONE, well earned stars here.

some of the head stones are sinking, some just disappear into the ground due to the grass growing over them. some of the headstones have been knocked around or over and they are never fixed. some of the decorations have been there for years. it's very sad. this place does not get the care it should.

This was once the most lovely and well maintained memorial park, but my visits this week to our family niche was VERY disturbing. The grounds were over grown with weeds around grave stones, much of the landscaping was dead, and uncared for, and the mausoleum was dirty, and looked like it hadn't been serviced in weeks with dead flowers and dropped petals throughout. Disrespectful conditions which should not be allowed to continue.

Beautifully maintained cemetery in palo alto. Some of the plots are out in the open, others are in more shaded areas under large trees. Walking around the grounds you get a hint of peoples stories, their history and the history of the country. Its strangely beautiful to see so many generations together, like time progresses there more slowly and 10 generations interact instead of just 3.
