    Status:
    Answered
    We purchased plots, vaults and opening/ closing, basically everything except the actual funeral home service. The purchase was in 2020. We started getting calls stating we are past due on our account We called to Inquire and were told that bookkeeping was backlogged a year or more, and we do not have a past due balance on our account. After we had made the last payment we were still getting calls stating that we were past due Many calls, to the point of harassing us, we would call the Cemetery and they stated we were past due, and they said from November of 2021, the bank sent us a copy of the cashed check, we forwarded it to the cemetery, then they said maybe it was October 21,. Same thing we called our bank, got a copy of the cashed check, sent it to the Cemetery on 11/28/ 21 We received another letter on 11/29, stating they were going to turn this over to an outside collection agency. It has been cashed on 10/19/2021. Still have not heard back from them. I am in complete shock that a place of business like this could be so out of control, and especially so uncaring, seems all that matters is money to them. You may look at our credit score, we don't not make our payments. I wonder how they conduct the rest of their business, do they properly bury people, or do they cut corners there? We have a son who was stillborn, buried at this cemetery, since **** That's why we were making arrangements here I would like to get my money back, remove my son and go to a funeral home/ Cemetery in the town I've reside in for the past 37 years .

    My husband passed in 2021. After they dug the hole our memorial was not level to the ground one corner is so above the ground Im afraid its going to get broken. I have been trying to get it leveled ever since. Multiple works orders have been written.Why would you do fall clean up around Thanksgiving? Everything was thrown away even a star that was just placed by my son last weak. I dont recommend Gardens of Memory. Im so disappointed!

    *****, Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Im so sorry for the confusion and frustration this has caused. As much as we rely on technology and training to provide customers with consistent, up-to-date information, we deeply regret when breakdowns like this occur. The memorial marker for your husband was leveled this week to prevent potential damage. We take great pride in our serene and reflective Cemetery grounds, which are maintained by Cemetery staff, including plantings, landscaping, grading, and other improvements throughout the park. In order to ensure the grounds honor and beautify the resting place of our loved ones, we posted signs asking all families to remove decorations by November 1st, 2023. This would give our Cemetery grounds an opportunity to remove unsightly items and give families an opportunity to decorate their loved ones ****** starting November 20th, 2023. We have items that were collected but not thrown away. Please call the Cemetery office, ************, and they would be happy to assist you. Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please let us know how else we can help.*********,********************* General Manager
