I called July 3 at 10:14am as I hadn't heard from them and wanted to ensure they were made aware that he wanted direct cremation. I spoke with the admin who indicated she'd get the message to the Funeral Director. By 1:55p I still heard nothing and called them back again. The admin said she'd call the director again. He finally called me back. He informed me they had already embalmed him; didn't know he was a direct cremation; Casually admitted their mistake and said they'd "waive the fee." That's not a favor. That's what the law requires. Embalming a person without family consent is illegal in Michigan (MCL 339.1810 (k)). Because of this violation and the insensitivity of their response, I asked another funeral home to take over. C&H delayed the transfer and then tried to charge me a storage fee--even though their own policy says fees don't kick in until day 7, and this was day 5. And we only didn't retrieve him sooner because they blocked it. They caused my family unnecessary pain, stress, and distrust during one of the hardest moments of our lives. I expected compassion and professionalism. I received negligence and obstruction. Please think twice before placing your loved one in their care.

After a friend suggested a cemetery lantern tour as a fun fall activity, I was able to add Highland…read moreCemetery as a new local gem that I had uncovered. Located in a hilly area that overlooks Ypsi's downtown, it is a peaceful, park like setting with rolling hills, and is just spectacular in the fall. After the nighttime lantern tour, we decided to come back during the day to see the place a little better. We could not have picked a more gorgeous day to see the fall colors against the blue sky, and we were able to see many of the thoughtful and beautiful monuments that were left to family members and loved ones as we meandered through the walkways. Rich with local history (which we learned about on the lantern tour, and could appreciate even more so in the daytime), we saw others enjoying the setting as well, as more than a few power walkers passed us on our afternoon stroll. Whether you visit for the nighttime tour, or just want to take a closer glimpse at an Ypsi local gem, Highland Cemetery is a place that you just might add to your list of local favorites as well!

There weren't any maps or coordinates to her grave site that were readily available, so I called the office. Though I would be arriving after the office closed, the staff printed up thorough maps and information to help guide me to her resting place. I got three maps from them and a list of the family members from her family who were buried there. What could have been like searching for a needle in a haystack was an absolute breeze, thanks to their help. They left the information in a little envelope taped to the door with my name on it. So easy to work with. I also want to add that the grounds are just beautiful. You can tell that this peaceful place has quite the history. If I had more time there, I would definitely have taken a nice walk through the grounds. Such a lovely and calming place.

This was a VERY disappointing and even frustrating service. It was cheap, so if that is what you…read moreneed, go for it. Their cheapness showed in other ways though, and I do NOT rec. this service. First, they sent ONE young man to collect my mom. (I couldn't even watch how he, all alone, was going to move her from her bed to his cart. Moving her alone wasn't going to be dignified, nor respectful). Next, I picked this business partly because they have a building/address in my city. After picking this business and setting it up with hospice+, I was informed that I would have to go to the Farmington Hills area to pick up my mom's cremains, NOT the city I live in, not the place I called, and not close to home. :/ Then they told me to fill out the emailed paperwork before Monday only to never get the paperwork. Yes, I checked the spam folders and called back to double check they had my email address correct, but I still never got the email. Even picking up the ashes was more stressful than it needed to be. When I pulled into the parking lot as per Google, my emotions were raw, but I realized there was no door on the east side of the building. So, rather than try to turn around in a parking lot and go back to Grand River, I thought I'd go around the back and use the alley. Nope. A big, white van was parked diagonally blocking the passage. With slight adjustments, the van could still have been on an angle, but let other cars pass. Thinking it might have been a loading or unloading, I waited. Nothing happened for a long time. I decided to park on the east side and walk around to the west side rather than try to turn around. While I waited, I wondered if the driver just didn't realize that the park job cut off the passage though? So, I left a note. It simply said, "This parking doesn't let other cars pass. :/ ) I thought it might have been someone like the young kid who picked up my mom and just didn't think about how he had parked? Then, I get to the door on the west side and it is locked. I walked to the front, and it says to use the door on the West side that was locked. It is during business hours. ?? I see a sign telling me to call, but the last thing I want to do is to talk to anyone right now, and I'm thinking that the owner must have had an emergency and closed the business? I am just considering that my 40-minute drive might need to be made again, when a woman opens the door and states that the building always locked - even during business hours. Her tone was admonishing as if I should have known they kept their doors locked. I was not told that. Sigh...more stress. I sit down to receive my mom's ashes when the owner strides toward me, swings his arm up and then slaps the note on the desk in front of me as he LOUDLY announces that he "Owns the alley and can block it whenever he wants!!" Um..okay. Can an owner make it harder for patrons and block parts of their own parking lot? Sure. Could both of us have taken a different route? Sure. Could he have explained that it took longer than expected to do something? Could he have said, I'm sorry for your mom's passing and I'm sorry the alley was blocked when you tried to get through? Sure. Could he have let it go? Sure. It just made a VERY depressing and very stressful day WAY more stressful than it needed to be. Maybe he was having a bad day. (I know I was.) Bottom line was, this place was cheap, but the empathy about the moment was not there. If you have another choice, I HIGHLY rec. you take it. Oh, and as I left about 5 minutes later, the van had been moved to allow people to pass through the alley.

Of course, they called my dad's number on file and enraged him by asking about his death. I got a nasty lecture from him and he was scared. We decided to do a cremation elsewhere.
