Oakwood Cemetery is an amazing location full of scenic beauty, incredible history (and multitudes…read moreof historic figures), unique memorials and architecture, and a lovely place to rest in peace. I have a family plot here and visit often. Many folks come just to walk the miles of roads and trails in the peace and scenic nature here. With over 60,000 graves from the early 1800's thru today spread out over 325 wooded and hilly acres, makes it very difficult to maintain. Grounds crews do what they can with limited budgets and personnel to keep the grass and weeds cut and trimmed but all except the front lawns sometimes get a bit overgrown before the grounds crews cycle back thru all the sections. The front lawns near the main entrance on Oakwood Ave are always kept looking good. Many memorials that were placed on the 1800's and early 1900's without adequate foundations are often leaning and toppled but the caretakers have been making a valiant effort at restoring and repairing as many of these old memorials as they can. I often volunteer here with locating and photographing memorials for Find-a-Grave and the office staff is very helpful in assisting in locating specific graves even though all records are manual with very little digitized. The manual system they use is ancient but it works for them. I do wish it was fully digital and searchable though. If you come to enjoy this place for whatever reason, please respect the people buried here and the families that may be visiting their lost loved ones. Maintaining an air of peace and quiet and reverence is what keeps this beautiful location special.

We were here to visit the final resting place of "Uncle" Sam Wilson, the famous Uncle Sam thanks to…read morea link from Atlas Obscura, https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/grave-of-uncle-sam. According to the story, Sam Wilson joined the American Revolution as a teenager just as the war was ending. He landed in New York and made a living as a meat packer. He supplied troops with meat and the barrels were stamped "US" and the legend grew from there. Iconic during World War I and World War II, even though Sam had died well before in 1854. Still, he's officially the official Uncle Sam thanks to a Congressional resolution in 1961. It's a beautiful cemetery with clear paved paths. Pretty, restful and really nice. They have many signs that point the way to Uncle Sam. You can pretty much drive most of the way. [Review 11507 overall, 1287 of 2019.]

During one of the hardest times in our lives, she was compassionate, attentive, and truly cared about every detail. She guided us through the entire process with kindness, patience, and professionalism, making an incredibly difficult time a little easier to bear. On the day of the services, I couldn't have asked for a better person to help our family. Britney went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled with care, allowing us to focus on honoring our loved one. A few days after the services, Britney reached out simply to check on our family and make sure we were all doing okay. That thoughtful gesture meant so much to us and showed that her compassion and care extended far beyond her professional responsibilities. I would recommend this funeral home 100% to anyone facing one of the most difficult times in their life. The compassion and support we received will never be forgotten. Thank you, Britney and team for everything you did for our family.
