It hides…read morebehind a large residential area, seems well maintained, and is small enough to look like a big backyard / little park that just so happens to have some tombstones in it. Had it not been for Yelp and the magic of Google Street View, I'm not sure if anyone would find this place with ease. Many of the tombstones are not raised, and there doesn't seem to be any office / meeting area where staff would be. Save for a small sign on a gate, and it might not seem obvious this is a cemetery. We laid one of my closest relatives to rest here. The staff that was present was helpful in conducting the ceremony and gave my family and I a chance to grieve our loss peacefully and with grace.

I stopped in the office and they said they would get it done by memorial day and still nothing. It is now August. It was something we paid for upfront and still we must wait. Also, when my mother was alive, we put some items on my father's grave shortly before Christmas and when we went back the items were gone. My mother felt that we couldn't have anything on my father's grave. One of the items was a potted mini Christmas tree. It wasn't like they needed to mow the lawn in December. I just told her we would just have to set up a memorial in our own back yard. They take the items off the graves and pile them in a huge clump in back of the Mausoleum. They also left off the temporary wooden cover and I assume they planned to come back with more soil. There was about a 6" hole that was letting the rain get into the grave. I put the wooden cover back on to prevent more water getting in. I talked to the guy in the office and he said he would talk to the people who takes care of that. He said it was normal for water to get in. I felt that was insensitive since we just buried my mother. That is all I need is the image of her floating around in her casket. They are not very good with the details.

My only complaint would be that my loved one died on a Saturday morning. I tried to contact them on Sunday during business hours and spoke with someone who said a funeral director would call me back, but no one did. However, once I called on Monday and spoke directly with a funeral director, everything proceeded smoothly from there. All the paperwork is done on-line. Their prices are good, a big part of this is likely because the office on Millikan (in the City Hall Building in the Beaverton Round) is apparently just a small office with low overhead. The cremation is done through Riverview Abbey. It was done quickly and I was able to pick them up at the Millikan office (you can also pick up at Riverview Abbey). They can mail them to you as well. Obtaining death certificates through them was also easy, as was getting an obituary posted to their website. They are very professional, responsive, and happy to help.

My dad was a Buddhist, and the funeral home worked tirelessly to find a suitable person to perform the ceremony. When they noticed that the service and item we had initially quoted had increased in price, they promptly contacted me to inform me of the change. They negotiated with the broker to secure a price close to the original quote and updated their service costs accordingly. Every person we spoke with was empathetic and generous in spirit. Losing a parent is incredibly difficult, and the shock of it all can leave everyone reeling. Despite the intense details we required for the final rites before cremation, Weddle Funeral Service handled everything with care, ensuring that every request was met perfectly and coordinating the spiritual services seamlessly. I hope you never have to experience the loss of a loved one, but if you do, I'm deeply sorry for your loss. Weddle Funeral Service will guide you gently through the process with an emotional intelligence that I remain grateful for to this day.
