No plastic flowers adorn this cemetery, all bouquets must be real. There is a group of individuals that call themselves "Friends of Grove Hill". They plan work parties and hold training sessions on the restoration of some of the oldest monuments. There is a beautiful little Chapel in the midst of the oldest graves. Grove Hill Cemetery has a user friendly web site, www.grovehillcemetery.net Five stars can easily be awarded such a fine cemetery. Wait! This is a YELP review. You know a real review, by a real consumer, about a real experience! My husband and I came to Grove Hill back in 1997 in search of a location to bury our 13 year old son. It was an unexpected death caused by drowning in a flash flood. The nice representative welcomed us in his office and proceeded to describe locations available for a cluster of family graves. We knew immediately the site for us when we heard the description. "The graves will always be in the front row, slightly away from the road way because there is a partial row in front of the section but to the side of our plots. It's on the very front of the cemetery and overlooks the main roadway and train tracks." (Great for my husband and son who were/are train buffs.) NOW, HERE'S THE PROBLEM. The sales pitch we were told turned out to be totally wrong! The grave is in the same location, the internal road is still in the same location but our son's grave and our future graves are hidden behind a newer set of headstones. Grove Hill for this deceptive sales pitch you get one star. Unfortunately, to average the positive of a nice cemetery with a cemetery location that we now feel stuck with the overall rating cannot exceed two stars.

It took about 20 minutes to walk around the entire area. However, it's not the smallest cemetery I've visited. Several tulips were in bloom. There are lots of trees. There are several benches throughout the cemetery. The driving lanes are very narrow. It's difficult for two cars to pass each other, but the paths are nice for walking. They have a special section of the cemetery called Babyland. That was sad. There were lots of balloons and flowers. One of the more interesting graves is one of Tent Girl (Barbara Hackmann Taylor), a young girl who was murdered in the 1960s. Her body was found along US 25. It took 30 years to identify her with DNA testing. She was the subject of a 48 Hours special. The headstone features a police sketch and description. There are many very old tombstones dating back to the 1800s as well as several new ones.

The inside carries through with the same elegant, old feeling. The pros: The owner of this business was very welcoming and also served as a gentle usher to move attendees from looking at the family's display and video into the service at the appropriate time. He also served as a wonderful host at the end when seeing each person out. The rooms of the facility made it an ease to flow from a circular table display (about the persons life) in one room, to an adjoining room where a video ran continuously with soft background music and chairs were set up so you could stop and watch, to the room where the actual service was held. There is both on street and off street parking. The cons: During the actual memorial service the sound system had a horrible high pitch feedback that was distracting. If entering from the front there is one step on the walkway that does not have a hand rail so it was difficult to manage with poor knees. Overall this is a nice facility with a professional and visible owner.

Most interesting to me were the many graves of those long forgotten who worked in Lexington's thoroughbred racing industry in its infancy -- famous jockeys (including Oliver Lewis, the first winner of the Kentucky Derby on Aristedes, and Isaac Murphy who was later reinterred at the Kentucky Horse Park), trainers and "hostlers", an old tem used to describe grooms and other handlers. Large signs have been posted to indicate these grave sites. According to the guide, the gates are always open and even dogs are permitted (as long as you clean up after them).

We were pre- planning both of our funerals. I am writing this unknown to Milward. I am a veteran and Mr. Hardy knew all about what to expect with Camp Nelson funerals. No up-selling just the facts. So pricing was fair and you choose the package that suits your needs. Casket cost seems to have the greatest room for savings if you don't forget that you are going to bury it not drive it around town. Mr. Hardy said he would meet us at any of Milward locations so we chose the North Broadway facility because it had the most caskets on display with pricing and descriptions attached. There are wooden and metal caskets. Research whether a gasket is important and the importance of the thickness (gauge) of metal caskets. It will help you choose a casket. Mr. Hardy was a good person.
