    Just wow...wow...if you love history and a gorgeous old cemetery that displays the dying art of headstones. Yep O'Henry is buried there and there are indeed tons of pennies that add up to the amount noted in his great work "The Gift of the Magi". Thomas Wolfe is here....Zebulon Vance...and the most amazing headstone...shaped into the form of a oak like tree. I run here when I can.

    My husband and I visited the cemetery while on vacation in Nashville. I was interested in paying respects to O'Henry and Thomas Wolfe, and got the chance! The cemetery is lovely and peaceful, and the grounds are well taken care of. There's even a map to make sure you don't get lost AND you can easily locate notable people who are interred there. A nice place to stop, of you're into strolling through cemeteries!

    A kitchen whisk on a cemetery plot !? #riversidecemetery #Asheville (Who cooked this up?)

    Donna P My dear husband passed away the day before Hurricane…read moreHelene. As you can imagine life was quite chaotic at the time. Moody-Connolly treated my husband with such care and tenderness as if he were a member of their family. The professional yet personal demeanor of the staff was so very much appreciated throughout his transport from our home to the very last moment upon entering the crematorium. The staff gave me time to spend with my Frank - as if our last minutes were just as important to them. They stood at a quiet respectful distance from us as I said my last words to him. I told them I was ready and they came up to me as we closed the casket and transported him for his cremation. John Monteith allowed me to participate in my husband's cremation as I had requested. I cannot explain how very much this meant to me. We did everything in life together and it was as comforting and appropriate as anything I could ask. The attendants were very gracious and spoke soft kind words as I turned away to leave. I know there could not have been a Funeral Home to carry out my request so respectfully. (Especially during the time Hurricane Helene was expected in the next few hours). I will always remember. The memory is precious because of the personal care all at Moody-Connolly provided for us. We had everything signed in our pre-need arrangements which assisted in making for peaceful arrangements. We had even picked out urns for both of us. Maybe others would think it not necessary but with pre-need planning we could make these kind of decisions and having matching urns was important to us. As you must know in reading this review, I can recommend Moody-Connolly Funeral Home to any family desiring the best for friends or loved ones. I will be eternally grateful to them.
