Greenwood Cemetery

Greenwood, Downtown South

Greenwood Cemetery is a historic cemetery just east of the downtown Orlando, Florida area. The…read morecemetery was established in 1880. Prior to 1880, the people who resided in the Orlando, Florida area had no permanent burial location. Eight residents of the area purchased twenty-six acres of land for a cost of $1,800. Greenwood Cemetery has since grown to over eighty acres. The cemetery has many of Orlando's past prominent citizens buried there, including multiple Orlando mayors. One area of Greenwood Cemetery is the heartbreaking section known as Babyland and is the resting spot of children who passed away under the age of five. Greenwood Cemetery offers tours usually around Halloween and there are plenty of ghost stories. One humorous story is that of Fred Weeks. Mr. Weeks was a northern businessman who was swindled by three men who sold him useless swamp land and billed it as prime real estate. Weeks responded by buying a piece of land close to Greenwood Cemetery and erected a tombstone with the three men's name on it and the biblical verse, "A certain man went down from Jeruand fell among thieves." The men bought the land back from Weeks. But Weeks was not done with these less than honorable men. Upon his mausoleum in Greenwood Cemetery, he had the men's names inscribed along with the biblical verse again. It is said that Weeks haunts the graveyard, as do countless other restless spirits. Greenwood Cemetery is an important part of the history of Orlando and definitely worth a trip.

The best cemetery in town. Bar none. People are dying to get in! I live nearby and many older…read moreneighbors say their next home is quite close ;)

My aunt Angelina Alvarez was viewed in December, directed by Michette Alvarez. No relation but…read moreenergetically it felt as though we were. Michette was short of amazing in helping my family during this time. Efficient, warm, professional are just a few words to describe our experience with Michette. A Community Funeral Home & Sunset Cremations is a beautiful place for your loved one to be viewed. Along with Michette, the staff was a team in coordinating the services. At no point did we feel neglected in any of our needs. We appreciated the amenities such as the kitchen area where my family was able to take a quick break for a coffee. The kid's room is perfect for when your little one becomes restless. Can't forget the spacious and clean bathrooms. Michette, Thank you is not enough for holding our hand through this process. Your attention to detail, with not only funeral arrangements but with our culture, will forever hold a place in my heart. Going above and beyond in honor of my aunt gave a comfort feeling as if you were aligned to be in that position. Titi Angie would have loved everything. No cambies nunca! Cuídate, prima!

Funerals are easily some of the most challenging experiences of a lifetime. When you need the…read moreservices required after the death of a loved one, it can be very difficult to find help when you need it most without having regrets. I cannot stress enough how fortunate we were to have A Community Funeral Home recommended by a friend. We've required their services twice in the last five years. This is a difficult time for anyone who experiences the death of a loved one. Both times we've employed their services they were exceptional.

Dad died July 2022. We used the Deltona Baldwin Fairchild. A…read moreterrible experience. It took them 6 days to meet with us after the death of my father. Even the lady at the office said I cant believe they haven't called you. The gentleman (JaRod) that we talked to was super kind and good to my mom, really super wonderful to talk to. Sadly however no one ever followed up on the services. We rarely received information when we called, texted or emailed. No one verified the dates with the church, so we did. No one called the National Cemetery, so we did. No one knew when the ashes would be available (they had said 10 days in the contract) it was weeks. No one came to the church, a service we paid for. No one came to the cemetery, a service we paid for. Dad died at home with hospice, after he died a car came to pick him up, we all followed Dad out to the car, there was another body right there in the car for all of us to see. Totally unexpected. Unfortunately we were told after we signed up for both mom and dad we could cancel the contract any time. Not true fine print said we had 30 days. Baldwin Fairchild has been in the area for many many years, don't go there, its not the same.
