This was my original review. "Burying someone who has been your spouse for 64 years in very hard…read more My wife passed away last summer, and I ordered a double marker from Elmwood. There have been a couple of problems with the way it was made, and Mike is working with me to get this resolved. I believe the problem lies with the company that actually makes the finished stone, instead of with Elmwood. But I bought the marker from Elmwood, so they are ultimately responsible. I expect to have this resolved satisfactorily. I'll update my review when things are finalized." ____________________________________________________________________________ Updated August 2023: Once a marker is sent back because it was not made right, you would expect it to be right the second time. It was not! And it wasn't right the third time either. Mike got in touch of the owner of the company that does all the machine work to make the marker appear as it was ordered. The owner told Mike he would personally see to it that it would be made right this time. We actually have the marker installed, looking as it was ordered. This was a long time coming! Since it was so difficult to have it done properly, Mike offered a discount, which I thought was more than fair. This particular transaction was difficult for both Mike and me, but in the end I think we were both satisfied. The marker looks great, and the original price given was substantially less than they wanted at the cemetery where my wife and son are buried.

So this will be my 2nd consecutive cemetery review - and although it still feels a bit weird to…read morereview a cemetery, this place was very nice and tranquil. We were out and about visiting our moms for the upcoming Mother's Day, and had a stop here at St. John-St. Joseph's. This cemetery is very old, easily over 100 years, and is very well kept up. The grass is always mowed, and weeds don't run rampant around here. Also, the groundskeepers do an excellent job of righting any headstones that get too far off kilter. I like the fact that they let you visit and plant perennials or annuals at your gravesite. They don't guarantee anything, but you are welcome to try. Water is available at many spigots around the property to help you get plants settled in. I never worked with the property staff, and so cannot comment on same, but it is run by the Gary Diocese and I suspect run very well. Beautiful grounds and grounds-keeping ... recommended when you have loved ones in need.
