Simply beautiful! I was absolutely amazed at the magnitude, design and location of James Whitcomb Riley’s memorial. This adoration of this man went far by so many. Not only did we all love his work, but local children personally had a special connection with him. It tugs so much at my heartstrings to know that they donated coins for his memorial. Happy to add some more to make their way to The Riley Hospital for Children. I am so happy that we came across this cemetery and we’re able to lay our respects.
Beautiful cemetery with lots of historic and notable spots, including John Dillinger’s grave, a stunning gothic architecture chapel, and loads of statues and flowers to enjoy.
I do love a good cemetery! Crown hill seems to be the best in Indiana, and has more Vice Presidents than any other. James Whitcomb Riley’s Greek revival hilltop tomb is beautiful and has a lovely view. Dillinger was a little hard to find, but nice that he made it to the family plot. The Stan Malless tennis net marker was my favorite.
Such a Beautiful and Peaceful Cemetery, came to see John Dillinger's Grave and it's so historic just to see it. This Place is well kept up and the Buildings are just as Beautiful.
Creepy and morbid you may think, or historic and interesting. Go through the Gothic gates. Visit the Gothic chapel. Get a map. Visit former Benjamin Harris' grave, Gatlinburg maker of Gatling gun, John Dilinger...and many beautiful monuments. If you like architecture, art, and sculptures then go take a look.
This is a cemetery I would recommend visiting if you’re going to, or passing through, Indianapolis. There is so much to see here. There are so many interesting and old very old gravestones. It’s a beautiful property to walk around in.
My funeral director Ms. Lalita Easter was the most amazing person I've ever worked with in a long time. She showed compassion, grace, and a lot of professionalism to our family in our time of need. She understood what we wanted and needed to carry out our mother's final wishes, and we would not have asked for a better person on this journey with us as we laid her to rest. You're so awesome Ms. Lalita Easter we say thank so much and we salute you.
I love taking a stroll through Crown Hill cemetery whenever I have a chance. It is especially beautiful during the fall months, as all of the leaves are changing colors! I love that you can see the city skyline in the background. Make sure you go up the steep hill to see the city skyline view. You won’t regret it!
Amazing cemetery. It is very beautiful. I just want to take a moment to say thank you for not allowing anyone to disturb the grave of John Dillinger over ridiculous claims that it is not really him in the grave. This would not just be disturbing his family but would be disturbing everyone who is buried in that area. They only wanted to do this for the purpose of a TV show, and it was not allowed to be done because the wonderful people at the cemetery stood their ground and demanded respect for all who lay at rest here. Thank you so much.
I was very impressed with the services for my husband. They were very respectful in every detail that we requested. Leanne Hofmann was the Director for our services. She was very professional, caring, friendly, and handle every detail for my husband and my family with great Respect. She followed up on all questions and made me personally felt at ease for an occasion such as this. Due to the professionalism from the entire staff and catering group, my husband was Celebrated just as he would have wanted. He lived his life that way it celebrated, just the way he wanted. I have no regrets from the beginning of the process to the very last moment to the ride home from the driver of the limousine serves. I want to THANK YOU all from the bottom of my heart for making Ralph’s home-going a Blessed Celebration for our family. May God continue to Bless you all in your lives and business!!
