Beautiful and haunting

By Rodney, 3/8/08

The cemetery is a spectacle of beauty especially in late spring and fall and very eery when under snow. Section 17 above the large duckpond is especially beautiful. Take some time to view the older headstones and memorials.

Peace

By C G, 10/8/07

This is a beautiful place. There is so much history in the tombstones. The trees are so stately and beautiful any time of the year. I especially like autumn. You can find every color of autumn leaves here at the cemetary. Several nice ponds with Koi, goldfish, and ducks.

Very Peaceful

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/23/04

I love this cemetary for its sprawling beauty. The duck pond is a favorite place to find a few peaceful moments. There are several wonderfully carved angel-themed headstones, which make beautiful photographs.
