Maybe it should become a city cemetery?

I have several family members buried at Resthaven and the condition of that cemetery is a disgrace. Went to my sisters grave last week and her headstone was sunken down and cover with about 3 inches of solid ice which my mother just paid $500 to have the headstone refinished a few years back

My daughter is buried there since 1972, My father in 1995, and my mother in 2007. At one time, Resthaven was beautiful. The way it looks now is unacceptable. My family's markers are sunken at least about 5 inches. When we get a good rain that lasts a while, the Garden of Four Chaplins floods in many areas. Mine included.

The whole property is in absolutely terrible condition. And the staff member I worked with in December of 2018 should not be working in that field. He was very unprofessional and mocking other clients. Not what you want to have to deal with when you are grieving. Also did everything he could to try to talk us out of a graveside service and after seeing the condition of the graves I could understand why. The day of the service they had pieces of plywood just thrown on the ground and only 5 chairs that were so nasty no one wanted to sit in them . Also did not put up any tent or anything.. ...to much trouble. Wish my parents were not buried there.

Me and my wifes burial plots are under water. I showed these spots to my sons and was sick to my stomach. It was so embarassing to see how bad it is

My husband is buried there and had been under water since 2001. Gravesite has been inaccessible and ankle deep water/mud on his burial site.

I have friends and family resting there,and it’s a shame that you need to wear knee high boots to go and visit them. This place is in a shambles and need fixed NOW

My brothers headstone was completely covered by weeds growing over it. Had to pull them back to find it. Horrible. Can't take my 88 yr old to see it like that.
