Our loved one passed on Christmas Eve morning and with one call, Jeff was there to take her into their care. Their kindness, compassion and respect for both our deceased loved one and those handling the arrangements was unparalleled. Jeff's guidance on how to bring our loved one back to NY to her final resting place was spot on. Delta TSA was kind and respectful when bringing her ashes through security. To my heart warming surprise, I learned that our loved ones ashes were formed in the shape of a heart. For those in the Vero Beach and surrounding areas, our recommendation is Thomas Lowther Funeral Home. Our heartfelt thanks to you, Jeff.

They were kind, patient and thorough. Kristin was amazing and walked me through each step, answered all of my questions, and always checked in with me to see if I needed anything else.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Coxx-Gifford. Jennifer Luce

However, on our last visit there, I entered their small enclosed building (AC, all recycled air) with my spouse and older relative and not one person in there had a mask on. It is the middle of a pandemic and Florida is setting record deaths every day, yet they had no interest in doing even the simplest thing to protect us, and all of their customers, and themselves. We didn't even know how to react, and conducted our business asap and got out. I can't even express my disgust at their complete indifference to our lives and well-being. Never again.

They told us the county had a deal with Strunk in Vero Bch. In an hour, they took her away. My adult children were not home. The next day, before she was cremated, they wanted to say good bye. They told us it would be $1300. We all knew even in the morgue she would have been "grey", and we told them it didn't matter. My kids just wanted one last good bye. They were firm. No money, no good bye. The reason they said was they would apply make up to her despite the fact we knew what we were going to see. I don't see how 5 minutes to put make up on cost $1300. My cousin works for a mortuary in another state and she thought the way we were treated was poor. I hope they changed things.

African-American and White sections contain many of the founding families from the small agriculture centered community of Fellsmere which was founded in 1911. The cemetery is much older however and is one of the oldest cemeteries in Indian River County. The land for the cemetery was donated to the city of Fellesmere by Fellsmere Farms in 1916 but there are unmarked graves in the oldest section of the cemetery from the 1880's. Brookside contains an array of markers, homemade brick, cement, and modern engraved granite. Prominent people are buried here as well as the the lesser known turpentine workers who worked in the pine camps that is now the St. Sebastian River State Buffer Preserve. The city of Fellsemere maintains the cemetery. Across from the historic cemetery is the entrance to another piece of history, the rails to trails project. The abandoned Trans-Florida Central Railway trails have been turned into hiking trails. The trail is a 2-mile hiking and biking pathway sitting in a former railroad corridor that once connected Sebastian and Fellsmere. The centerpiece of the trail is the iconic bridge over Interstate-95 where the name of the trail is displayed prominently in huge letters across the span of the bridge. It was designed to look like an old trail bridge. Though the railroad trail is about 15 miles long, only 2 miles of trail have been completed.
