The church was founded in 1751 but the oldest grave I could find was 1811. They very well could be older ones because many were worn and impossible to read. Most of the gravestones are pretty modest but they were a couple of obelisks that were so popular in the middle 1800s. Most of the stones seemed to be white or gray and it gives the old graveyard a strange and spooky appearance. Some were just nubs in the ground and others just simple wooden crosses. Many family plots are present and the stones were all neatly lined up together. The cemetery is in a lovely location with the huge church looming over on one side and some lovely woods on the other. A golf course is right across the street but the trees obscure the view of the golfers. A lovely and very morbid sort of graveyard, especially with the light colored gravestones blending in the snow.

Beloved Companions in Avon, CT showed us incredible compassion during one of the hardest moments of…read moreour lives. When our beloved dog passed away unexpectedly, the owner, David, personally took my call the night she died and met with us the very next morning. His kindness and genuine empathy were truly comforting during this difficult time. David guided us through the cremation arrangements with great care (and allowed us to choose our preferred package with no upselling) and allowed us to say our final goodbyes to our sweet girl before we left. The cremation was completed the following day, and we received our best girl's ashes in a beautiful wooden urn, a prayer card, and several ink paw prints, all handled with the utmost respect and compassion, from Justin. We are deeply grateful for everything and 100% recommend Beloved Companions.

Driven by this location many time was pretty surprised by the ease of getting in and getting out as the funeral was promptly after the business day concluded. There were ushers helping us park cars as it was a large gathering from in and out of state that was here to bid farewell to a friend and family. The lot was pretty tight yet served us well as I didn't have to fight for a spot and was heading inside. The staircase leading upstairs from the lot that I had parked was beautiful, though we all were dressed in black attire. Two different rooms for seating and the bigger room held the casket and visitors came to pay their respects. A decently sizes funeral home that some had to squeeze by others while there was still areas for groups to congregate. I imagine that a lot of thought and preparation was put into honoring this man and this funeral home did him justice. Cannot speak to the procession the day after to the cemetery as I couldn't attend but I imagine thar it was well organized and handle the business of the Elmwood West Hartford area.

I believe he is one of the owners, but Ryan has personally helped a great deal with all arrangements and made these sad days a little less hard on everyone with how much help he has been.

Little did we know that they would botch up the services they were suppose to handle professionally and expeditiously. Beware nationally direct cremation ( aka silent cremation) only costs $575 - $1,395. * My 93 year old mother passed away from Dementia and cardio-vascular failure. Sure the body was picked up, but was not cremated for days due to no availability (?) at the crematorium. The ashes were suppose to go to my brother and death certificates to all the siblings. Nothing got sent. We had to call and find out that these items were sitting at the funeral home. We were promised they would go out that day. No ashes arrived. After one month I called Kenny Funeral and they said the delivery of the ashes fell through the cracks. I told the assistant that I wanted a personal apology from Brian Kenny(owner), that the ashes would go out the next day and compensation for his funeral home negligence. Brian did apologized blaming the problem on a family crisis and he would personally mail the ashes and follow up with a compensation offer to our family for his funeral home's ineptitude. Like everything else the compensation was forgotten or intentionally overlooked. A death of our mother was heart wrenching enough, but to have the family go through this agony was despicable.
