This graveyard is well kept, but other people should know you can't plant flower for long term, it…read morewould be impossible to keep this place nice and tidy.... My Mom and Grandparents are buried here and I come every time I'm up here, and they maintain this very well... their stone was leaning and I ask one guy could you fix it and they did, I slipped a 20 spot to him and said this means a lot to the people that have family here... A BIG SHOUT OUT to the maintenance crew that do a very good job maintaining this cemetery...

Growing up, I was always one of those kids who was afraid of ghosts, creeped out by graveyards, and…read morethought I [literally] had skeletons in my closet at night. Mausoleums still rub me the wrong way. But, here's something that surprisingly didn't scare me: Albany's many graveyards. At first, I thought it was weird how they were squooshed between fast-food chains and went right up to the streets. Then, after thinking about it, it's OUR modern culture that doesn't necessarily have enough respect for the dead to have a more sacred place for them. Many of these cemeteries popped up before development (Albany IS almost 400 years old, anyway). So the other day, I went around looking at all the cemeteries. Out of four I visited that day, Our Lady of Angels was hands-down my favorite. Well, maybe not favorite, but definitely the most beautiful and the least creepy. While the land is flat and expansive, it's kept up beautifully, and there are some really stunning edifices in honor of the people who lie beneath, no matter how creepy that sounds. I was floored by some of the cementwork--sunbleached and clean--depicting many saints, angels, and even an enormous crucifix, complete with a colorful Jesus. This place seemed peaceful, the way a cemetery should be, despite the fact it's right off a busy road.
