You may wonder why or how can someone review a cemetery. I'm very involved in genealogy and have dozens of family members interred here. The office staff are enormously helpful locating plots (which one can do directly from their website) and giving directions. The groundskeepers are not that helpful. In fact, they may even direct you to the wrong section. Only disappointment are large areas that are very unkempt with waist-high grass and debris. I really wish they can be more respectful and maintain the graves better especially since many families no longer visit.
I saw this place when driving to deliver some furniture to New York and was amazed by how many graves there are here! At first, I thought it was a factory that made headstones because they almost looked stacked, they were so close together. Pretty surreal landscape :o
