I highly recommend him . He was kind , asked questions about deceased ,what were his likes /dislikes , what he did in life and what was special about him. He took care of me as my partner did and helped me navigate this difficult part of life. Nickerson arranged hid memorabilia in a beautiful display , and got many compliments on it.

The oldest readable gravestone goes back to 1683 but there are undoubtable unmarked graves that are much older. The ancient graveyard is lovely with rolling hills and some great old and creepy trees scattered around. None of the memorials are especially large but there are some really weird looking crypts and several very cool memorials that are just natural boulders. The graveyard is well maintained but many of the old gravestones are impossible to read. But others have intricate and morose death heads carved into them that are both incredibly cool and spooky as all hell. This is a amazing and fascinating graveyard that is a cool place for a nice walk while in Barnstable. A wonderful slice of the town's history that is well worth visiting.

I always come in with my flowers to the funeral home and I always make a meal for the family for after the week they are very accommodating about putting it in the refrigerator if it's a cool meal or on the in the kitchen if it's hot meal and making sure the family I was accommodated when it's over. This time they had chocolates in the entryway where people sat and relaxed and talked with other family members etc. like a calling type room they had boxes of chocolates which are apparently the deceased favorite. I thought that was extremely thoughtful thing to do.
