I was there on 8/28 and found the grounds in very poor condition. I fully understand that the drought has impacted the grass. However, all the dirt covering the flat stones is deplorable. Not only can’t you read them but some are completely covered in dirt making it impossible to even find some. They just blend it with the dirt surrounding the stone. Very disappointed.

I absolutely love this cemetery but there is a issue with things being stolen, someone stole from my 6 year old daughters grave. I make my little girl beautiful wreaths and vase arrangements for every holiday and every season and make sure they are secured to her stone and yet some lowlife, heartless person keeps taking them. I also bought her a beautiful led candle ran by solar and today I went there and that was stolen. This makes me sick. As I was leaving tonight I stopped and spoke to security and he stated to me “ you aren’t the first, I’ve got a lot of complaints from other families that things are being taking” this is extremely heartbreaking to families and I only hope they up the security or add cameras

Was here on Mothers Day. I was not very happy with the way the cemetery looked. Grass was cut, however it was so long around of the bases of most of the stones, that you couldn't even see the base. Very disappointed in the upkeep. I know its a large cemetery, but knowing Mothers Day was coming this place should of been immaculate!

The cemetery itself it nice, but every time I call to ask a question or get any information, I always happen to speak to a very unpleasant individual named “Matt”. Every time I speak to him he talks over me, interrupts me, and replies to my question with snarky remarks. For my grandmothers funeral, myself and the rest of my family were told that we would be able to watch my grandmother be placed in her grave with my grandfather. At the conclusion of her service, the same individual told us that “[we would] have to wait”. After reminding him about what we had spoken about on the phone, he stated “well, I don’t know what to tell you because I have another service to do first, sorry”. It’s just a bit ironic that a cemetery staff member would treat close family members in this rather cold way so soon after the death of not one, but three family members. I also feel like the maintenance crew could do a better job. Come June/July everything looks dead and dry.

You can go to the office on the grounds and they will tell you where the plot is. The office is towards the right as you enter the main gate.

Do the gates close at 4:00?

What is her name and d.o.d.? Findagrave.com or the diocese cemeteries websites might list her sec/lot. Also a call to the cemetery itself, workers have helped me with alot of burial locations.
