Unlike others that are a "lawn" configuration, Arlington is a "park" setting which means lots of trees, rolling hills and plenty of peace. Fredric J. Baur was the designer of the iconic Pringles can and my visit went smoothly. It was easy to find, near the intersection as specified on the Google Maps placemark. There was already Pringles can present but it was a little beat up by the elements. I disposed of that one and replaced it with the one I had bought just a few minutes ago at Kroger. "Original" of course. Yes, Baur stipulated in his well that a portion of his cremated ashes be sealed up in a Pringles tube. When he died, his families followed through on this desire and it's clear that I'm not the only one who is in on it. I'd like to see better signage that points out the sections of the cemetery that would make it easier to find specific spots. [Review 18032 overall - 176 in Ohio - 1553 of 2022.]

When it was time for passing, the cemetery was gracious and arranging, including a graveside spiritual ceremony at a fee.

The cemetery is well cared for and fine for contemplative visits any time even if you have no peeps there! That's my experience. No idea on new plots or internment requests. My experience was excellent.

There were enough booklets so that everyone in attendance could take one home. - A 15 minute video complete with moving images, music and quotes from and about my friend. It was edited in storytelling fashion, discussing his life from beginning, to university and beyond, both hardships and high points. The visitation was an open casket. While a person never resembles how you remember them in life, Linnemann did a fine job of making him appear at rest. Next to the casket was a poster board featuring the last speech my friend wrote. He was a motivational speaker and this made for a beautiful touch. Sadly, I've attended many funerals in my life, but Linnemann has by far offered the best service. The facility itself is modern, clean, and bright. The rooms are spacious and can accommodate large groups of mourners. There are also plenty of chairs and couches in each of the rooms. Ample free parking is available in the lot across the street as well. Linnemann went above and beyond to make a comfortable grieving process for both my friend's relatives and for those who knew him socially. It was the perfect bridge of connecting his loved ones of all ages and from all walks of life.

Do not recommend, worst experience, disrespectful to family…read more A moral issue that was very disrespectful to my Mother and our family. This has caused additional emotional distress and added to the grieving process. The entire experience with Tufts was overwhelmingly stressful. Cutting my Mothers hair, not returning phone calls, the sub-standard work by Tufts Riverview Monuments, and the lack of compassion has prolonged the stress and emotional anguish over the tragic loss of our Mother for several months. Tufts cut my Mother's hair very short without contacting our family for permission. It was very short and tightly curled. It didn't even resemble her, they radically changed her appearance. Her hair was always long. On the day of the funeral, our family was completely shocked and appalled to see what they did to her hair. Previously, I told Julie Tipton that her hair was very thin and gave her a headband for her hair. Photos were also emailed prior to the funeral. Pushing her hair back with the headband (which everyone knows that is what a headband is for) and combing her hair straight was what should have been done. Their total disregard about this issue made us feel like our Mother and family was unimportant and just another number. We paid in full the day of the funeral ($13074.12) and the perception that they demonstrated to us was "they were paid, it's over and done with, it's your issue". Tufts was not even professional enough to return a call to a grieving family regarding an issue that was very important to them; such a lack of compassion. Calls: 1. I left a message for Julie Tipton at the front desk. No return call. 2. I called Larry Schildmeyer. He was standoffish; expressed no concern about her hair other than they had "someone" come in to do hair, and that he would check into it. They also made an error on my Mothers cards. He said he would check into that as well and call me back. He left a message regarding the cards, but no response regarding my Mother's hair. 3. I called the office and asked to leave a message for Larry Schildmeyer that I still wanted a response regarding her hair. No return call. 4. A few days later I called and spoke to Linda, the office manager, who said she would check into it and call me back. No return call. 5. Visit: Another trip to the funeral home had to be made to pick up corrected cards. The person at the front desk told my friend that after a body is embalmed, their hair becomes very brittle; they have to cut it to do anything with it other than use a wig. THIS IS NOT TRUE. I checked with another funeral home who assured me that it is always customary to ask the family prior to cutting hair unless there is head trauma. They also informed me hair does not change texture and is just washed after embalming and can be styled. Tufts Riverview Monument Company did an extremely poor job of engraving the information on the existing cemetery monument. Another shock for our family causing more emotional distress. Peggy Schildmeyer acknowledged the poor quality job they performed, and said she could not assure us they could correct it without causing damage to the monument (prior cost for monument $3223.72). She reimbursed us with a $250 check that we initially paid them to have the work done. The check, in no way, relieves the emotional distress due to the constant reminder when visiting the monument because of the permanence of such a poor quality job.
