    It's a peaceful, lush cemetery with plenty of shade.
    Rohan D.

    I wish there was YELP when my mother passed away. It's hard enough to be an informed consumer when one isn't grieving. Being the number one son, and almost all extended kin on the other side of the world, I had to make some tough decisions on behalf of my stunned immediate family while just barely technically adult but really too young to be taking charge of funeral arrangements. We were completely unprepared, and trying to practice ancient but alien traditions far away from where our customs would be recognizable. The funeral home took advantage of us but not the Evergreen Cemetery. The staff did their best to try to understand and respect Japanese Buddhism, long before diversity was considered by any Americans to be a desirable thing. They advised us well, we bought enough plots for the whole family and future spouses, which turned out to be a smart and practical investment, they were nice and trustworthy when I really needed them to be both. That was over thirty years ago, so I'm giving you some dated information, but of course it left a strong impression on me. I still regularly visit, but I have little need to talk to anyone working here. A few years ago, my father became concerned because he couldn't find the deed to our plots, but he said that the woman he talked to reassured him that all was in order. The place is well maintained, with a nice balance of trees and bushes, it is peaceful and tasteful. If there was Yelp back in the 1980s, I would have rated Evergreen a full five stars, but what's happened since then is that they've sold off the surrounding property and now the grounds are surrounded by ugly suburban strip malls. You can't tell when you're inside the gates, but it's jarring and unpleasant approaching the park.

    I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful the staff is here. Whenever you encounter an issue with a…read moreheadstone or anything else, you can simply call the office, and they will promptly address the problem. This is why I highly recommend the Catholic Cemeteries in the Chicago area. The cemetery is very clean and well-maintained. Multiple generations of my family are buried here, and I recently purchased my urn niche. I strongly recommend this cemetery, even though it is nearing full capacity.

    Feels just a bit weird reviewing a cemetery, but this place was really very nice. My parents, half…read moremy grand parents, and a number of uncles are laid to rest here, so I have visited a number of times. Every time we visited the place was beautiful and kept up in immaculate condition - they never let weeds overgrow anything or headstones lean off kilter. Grounds management does an excellent job here. This cemetery is over 100 years old, so it has a history. Some famous people are buried here, dozens of priests are buried in Archdiocesan plots, and since it is so old the headstones on hundreds of graves are large and beautiful. This facility is owned and managed by the Archdiocese of Chicago, so it is professionally kept at all levels. The few times we had to work with the staff in the office, our business was handled very well. They do what they can to help you with your needs. We would recommend this cemetery for your loved ones when the time arrives.
