I second Heather M.'s review from 2010; Hillside Cemetery is rife with spiritual activity. As a…read morenascent paranormal investigator, I visit spiritually active places around the nation (typically ones off the beaten path) and conduct ITC (instrumental trans-communication) research using a variety of devices and apps. I happened upon Hillside Cemetery on a recent road trip to Colorado. Old cemeteries tend to elicit fewer responses, but I felt drawn to this beautiful burial ground and its ornate, weathered tombstones. At the very least, I wanted an excuse to breathe in the crisp mountain air and admire the scenery. After introducing myself to any spirits who might have been present, I launched my Spiritus app and began listening for disembodied voices. About thirty minutes passed with nothing conclusive, just random, unaltered phonetic sounds. As I approached a shaded area towards the top of the hill, however, I began hearing clear, undebunkable names, words, and phrases. The name "May" came through several times. I walked a few steps up the hill and happened upon a grave belonging to May Rickard, an "unfortunate girl" who passed away in 1899. I asked, "May Rickard, if that's you, can you tell me what happened?" I then heard "overdose...suicide." Her tombstone validated these words; she had apparently died of alcoholism and morphine. Before I could ask a followup question, another female voice added "hooker." I glanced to my right and saw Minnie Morgan's grave. On her tombstone was the same epitaph: "An Unfortunate Girl" but with the word "prostitute" in parentheses. I then realized that all graves in this section bore the same euphemistic epitaph. As I was preparing to leave, I wished May and Minnie farewell and heard what I consider to be a desperate plea: "No...don't...help!" I realized at this point that I was perhaps the first person to communicate with these poor souls in over a century. Even if you are skeptical of the paranormal, this cemetery is worth a visit. You will learn much about Silverton's storied past.

An old mining town cemetery has got to be full of ghosts, and the Hillside Cemetery in Silverton…read moredoes not disappoint in the spooky factor. The cemetery is in a beautiful spot on a hill that overlooks the town of Silverton in the valley below, and the surrounding mountains. It's also provides great insight to the history of the town and surrounding area. I would suggest going during the day to walk around and read the information boards and tombstones, and maybe taking a picnic lunch. I would also suggest returning at night to do a ghost walk. I would also suggest wearing a diaper, in case you do run into an old miner's ghost and can't control your bladder.This place runs pretty high on my "Pee Your Pants" scale.

Brandon was incredibly proactive about addressing the issues in my initial review. He read my…read morereview, reached out to his staff to determine what went wrong, and then contacted me with sincere apologies and explanations (which he did not frame as excuses), and practical solutions to make it right. I really appreciate the sincerity and good customer service. I truly believe that Brandon was genuinely concerned with how distraught my family was over the wrong urns, and not just how it made Brown's look. Although the initial service was unfortunate and subpar, I believe the customer service, which involved Brown's taking full responsibility and monetary remedies, warrants an upgrade in review. My family will be using Brown's again (hopefully not anytime soon though!).

They were so understanding, available all the time to answer our questions and were genuine with everything they did. He is very honest and a class act in our book. They gave the utmost respect for my dad while in their care and worked hard to get the things my dad wanted for his funeral. I cannot believe how comforting and attentive they were to our entire family. Legacy went out of their way to accommodate and make us feel loved. To top it off, Jerry even offered his suit jacket to my mother on the day of the funeral as the rain poured down. You CANNOT get any better than that. Thank you so much Legacy (Jerry) we are eternally grateful.

After it has been installed I was informed that it has been replace. They told me the person who told me this is no longer working there, CONVENIENT, and they were not going to make the situation right because the representative who sold me the plaque should never have sold it to me. I'm out $4000 and my poor wife is devastated. These people are just like the person who replaced it, unsympathetic and uncaring about the feelings of the family. They are there to make a buck by hook or by crook. Beware!! They will lie for that dollar. I read the contract and nowhere in it does it state I couldn't purchase from them and have them install. You will pay for their greed and incompetence.
