"Everyone here was extremely friendly and helpful"
"I haven't talked with staff in a while but the grounds are very nice"
"My Mother and Stepbrother are buried there"
"Service: Lori, Deb, and staff were really good to work with"
"My father was buried here when I was young, since then there’s been 2 new owners but it’s been well kept and a very peaceful place for me to go when I want to be close to him- now my baby boy is buried there with my dad and there they will be together until we meet again"
Everyone here was extremely friendly and helpful. I called over the phone and requested burial locations for several family members. Even when I showed up on Memorial Day weekend, they were more than ready to help by pointing out the plots on a map. Additionally, they knew I would have trouble locating a particular grave due to its age. So they put me in contact with the grounds crew, who not only took me right to it, but uncovered the infant's plot number with a shovel! Definitely more service than expected, and a well-kept cemetery to boot.
I haven't talked with staff in a while but the grounds are very nice. They keep the grass cut low have special days for various remembrances and it ia always peaceful. It is quite a bwautifulnresting place. I have 4 family members buried there. Oh, if in your cultural tradition you want to see the casket covered before leaving tell them right away so they are preared with workers and shovels otherwise the dirt is filled in with a backhoe. It may entail extra labor costs... FYI.
My Mother and Stepbrother are buried there. The staff is real nice but the first time I tried to find her grave they gave me the wrong one. Then we went in and they finally gave us the right one. It's true the grounds are very well kept. I just hope my Mother's Shepard's hook is still there. I'll be very upset if it's not.
Service: Lori, Deb, and staff were really good to work with. They understood our needs and patiently worked with us to find the perfect plot for our father. It was nice to be able to communicate via text/call even during off hours with Lori Carver. Location: Love the view of downtown from top of the hill; very peaceful.
My father was buried here when I was young, since then there’s been 2 new owners but it’s been well kept and a very peaceful place for me to go when I want to be close to him- now my baby boy is buried there with my dad and there they will be together until we meet again. I love you Dad, and mommy loves you Ryder.
Recently went there to put flowers on my Brother and Father's plots and the ground maintenance was very discouraging. Weeds covered most of the stone and it had not been mowed for a very long time. This was very disappointing. I would not recommend this cemetery. It was much nicer in the past.
My nana is buried here and I think they do a very good job. The lawn is always maintained. We do some cleaning at her site in the winter, like brushing the snow off but that is to be expected. The Christmas wreaths this year looked wonderful and at a fair price.
Today some of my family members went to Hillside to put out our Christmas wreaths. One of the cemetery works, Jonas, helped us get them situated on the stands and secured. We really appreciated his helping us, it was cold and windy.
Great place oldest sister baby brother resigns here had to lift up and dig up the headstones are baby brother soon to go and do big sisters but from experience as being a groundskeeper at Mendota Heights Cemetery this is no
It's awful that things aren't allowed to be left(sentimental things or chimes etc) everything gets thrown away and not allowed which I find so inconsiderate and awful to not allow people to properly mourn their lives
Its a very nice cemetery!! It's well maintained and the lawn is beautiful. The staff are super friendly and will anwser any questions you have and make you feel comfortable. I would recommend it for sure.
I CALLED AND TALKED TO DEB. SHE WAS VERY RUDE. SHE RUSHED ME OFF THE PHONE AND DIDN'T EVEN ATTEMPT TO ANSWER ANY OF MY QUESTIONS. IF THERE WAS AN OPTION FOR 0 STARS THAT WHAT I WOULD HAVE SELECTED.
We think that cemetery maintenance is just adequate and that older family sites are poorly maintained. We do alot of gravesite maintenance ourselves just to find recently placed markers.
A special thanks to Peter Thom for going above and beyond to help coordinate my mother's headstone. He's a gem and I appreciate him more than words can say.
Big cemetery in the park style of cemetery layout. Many large tombstones.
Fit enough people had another room for overflow
Very well maintained cemetery!
peaceful and beautiful
actually is spooky!
