I have no idea who he was supposed to look like...definitely not my Dad. And his hair looked like he just got out of bed!The unfriendly personnel offered cold respect to family and friends. The Pastor we chose had a lovely service before the presentation of Military Honors. At that point, they wheeled the casket in to the chapel area which felt very disrespectful to my Dad. This was not done in a ceremonial fashion and destroyed the ambiance established by the Pastor. Why not have the casket in the chapel during the eulogy waiting for the Honors? There was no honor or respect. It was awful!

I never knew all that went into funerals, the Bock family was very helpful, kind and made coordination as easy as possible.

I'd give this a negative if I could. Sadly, I loved this place as a child. Dating to 1901, it was…read moreonce beautiful. It's in horrible shape, with no sign of care to improve it. In the 1960s-early '70s, the Memorial Day parade was great fun for we kids as we pedaled our decorated bikes in the parade along Mt. Royal to the cemetery. Of course, we didn't understand the solemnity of the day. The cemetery was well cared for, the Moses Fountain functioned and had lovely landscaping around it, and many times we'd ride our bikes along the narrow hilly lanes. Mom died in 2006, and I noticed then that the back of the Mausoleum was in terrible shape. Dad died in 2016 -- no improvements. Last time I was there to tend to my parents' grave, I was outright appalled at the disrepair. The Fountain, long dry, with weed trees growing up around it; the Mausoleum -- the original an Art Deco beauty, is apparently now condemned (what of the loved ones, including vets, interred inside?!), no water for fresh flowers, and some lanes are mere rubble. Whoever owns the cemetery now (Kyper?) overcharges like crazy (and has been at least since 2006, our first encounter while traumatized by Mom's sudden death in an auto accident) -- it's an abomination. We learned this when my father died here in eastern PA and we compared prices with a Funeral service that does NOT charge by commission - we only paid the Glenshaw cemetery to open/close Dad's spot for the urn we purchased here, and they gave us a VERY hard time about it. Thank God we had good guidance from our local professional. This Memorial Day it's important to express gratitude to those who served and even gave their lives. It's also important to show reverence for their - and everyone's - resting place by demanding decent upkeep. Apparently right now for the owners (Kyper?) it's about big profits. For shame.
