Crestwood Memorial Cemetery

DO NOT BUY LAND HERE. These people do not take care of the cemetery or the families of the latest passing. The roads are like walking over legos, they really need to invest in the cemetery. This is supposed to be like a paradise for the dead but instead it looks like hell. My great grandmother passed away in march 2023 laying beside her late husband. The problem I have with this is that my family had to buy another casket when they had receipts from the 60s for the land purchased and the casket. These people give my Grandmother a hard time when she goes up there requesting for stuff to be done. Which takes them months to do a simple task. I hear the owner owns multiple cemeteries and treats every single place the same way. The guy must be taking the money for himself. What a shame, I’m sorry to anyone who has problems here and I will pray for you.

This is my very first bad review of a company on Google, but it warrants one. My son was buried here sixteen years ago and we had a pleasant experience Well, it's not pleasant to bury your son, but you know what I mean. I'm not sure what has happened since then, but when we interred my brother last month we were mortified by the process. After the vault was lowered, one of four chains was not removed from the crane. The crane backed away taking the swinging lid with it. In an attempt to replace the lid, a man who's butt was entirely exposed for at least twenty minutes his pants had fallen but his hands were busy kicked and hit with a shovel the lid/vault. During one forceful kick, his foot slipped and he knocked the nameplate off, smearing black tar all over the beautiful vault we so painstakingly picked out. He wasn't even going to put the nameplate back! We had to sternly ask before he picked it out of the grave! We're pretty convinced the vault never actually sealed correctly. We had kids present who were very disturbed by the nudity - not plumber's crack - a full moon I could pick that butt out of a lineup. I wouldn't even write a bad review, except Crestwood refuses to refund the handling fee and has been very unsympathetic towards our bad experience. AVOID this place.

CRESTWOOD CEMETERY IS GARBAGE!!! They didn’t even order my friend's grandfather's headstone until FEBRUARY SIX mos after death WHEN IT WAS PAID FOR and now they told them not to expect it until MAY!!! They don't give a single d@mn about people or the dignity of your loved ones. Go somewhere else.

This place is a joke. What I call a bunch of crooks. My mother passed away in March 2023 and I had to buy an additional casket for her. They claim the first one wasn't paid for while I had receipts. My parents bought everything in the 60s the plot and casket, etc. My father passed in 2015 and we had the same problems. Nothing changed for the better and I am highly disappointed.

We bought a brand new Shepard hook from this place a couple if months ago; to be placed at my brother's grave. Well this is what was placed on his grave. Just to clarify we paid 600.00 for a brand new & unused shepards hook with a base that matches his head stone. Well as you can see the base does not match his head stone; not to mention it is extremely large and the hook is used & rusted. Crestwood management is giving me nothing but hassels in rectifying this. My brother may not be walking this earth but he still deserves respect. No family deserves the trauma this situation has caused.

You ought to be ashamed of yourselves for how you’ve treated families having to go through one of the hardest moments of their lives. I can’t wait for the day karma catches up to you and maybe then you’ll all understand empathy and professionalism. I would avoid this place at all costs and sell your plot if you have one here, or else your family will have to deal with a complete travesty during your burial like denting in the casket knocking the lid off and staff losing their freaking pants and underwear trying to fix their mistake and then never making it right and charging over three hundred dollars for the complete incompetency of it all.

Amy is so rude to people. The owner knows and doesn't care. They knocked my in-laws headstone over twice preparing another grave. 2 separate times. After the second time Amy joked that someone had it out for me. Yes I agree. Sounds about right. I could go on and on.about phone calls, orders, and customer service but they don't deserve my time. My family is in Woodlawn and we are prearranged so we have no choice but to stay with them. I'm really surprised Elizabeth asked us for a review. She must be new. The one person we appreciate is Jason. He has been great. He deserves 5 stars!

Zero stars-save yourself the heartache of dealing with Crestwood Cemeteries. My family has plots in Tyrone Memory Gardens which is owned by Crestwood. My Grandfather was buried in 10/20 and shortly thereafter they installed a cement block/headstone that belonged to someone unknown to us. Once that was eventually removed-we had our own double headstone placed in 5/2022. One week later they took apart the headstone along with the stone of the person behind him and left them in front of my brothers grave farther down the row. They tore our flowers/plants and edging that we had just put in out of the ground and threw everything to the side. I would think that if this needed to be done that we would have been contacted We had to plant our own grass after 1.5 years of which they then covered with the sand from the man they buried in another row. This seemed very unnecessary. We discussed with them that we would like the headstone replaced ASAP and have been ignored as now-a month later the stone is sitting broken apart and left to the side. As a family-we are heartbroken and disappointed.

This place is a mess! Frank Bellant's grave was over grown. Frank's father's grave may give you an indication of what I saw. I think it was three inches of dirt and grass. Frank joined the Navy and was sent to Vietnam. He was a fireman on the USS Du Pont DD941 where he was assigned as a boiler operator and fireman. On August 28, 1967, enemy gunfire attacked the Du Pont and killed Bellant. He was 20 years old. Frank's Father is a WWII vet . To have any grave look like this is shameful. To leave a vet's grave like this, after it has been brought to your attention is appalling.

This has to be the WORST cemetery I have ever seen, and I am in the cemetery business. Roads are barely even driveable, there was a hole so big that we had to drive on the grass around it. It took them two years to raise my great grandpas headstone, and when they finally did, they broke it in half and now it is cracked all the way through.
