Curlew Hills Memory Gardens

Thank you for caring for our family during this difficult time. We appreciate everything the entire Curlew Hills Memory Gardens’ staff have done to accommodate us in our time of need. All the subtle details your staff implemented did not go unnoticed. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. We are extremely grateful.

I am conflicted as to what rating to give Curlew Hills. We tragically lost our infant grandson almost two years ago. The Curlew Hills staff was absolutely wonderful in helping our daughter plan the service, and the day of the service they were amazing. Which makes the issue we had with them so much more unexpected. People have left mementos at our grandson's resting place to honor his memory. We have always made sure everything was neat and well tended. Recently we came to visit and everything friends and family had left was gone. We went to the office and were told items that were deemed worth saving were out by a fence and if we wanted we could go see if they were still there. To say we were upset is an understatement. We were taken out to a fence at the back of the cemetery where we literally had to dig through objects from other graves to try and find everything. I was appalled. It was explained to us that once a year the cemetery is cleaned so that it will not look trashy. That technically no one is supposed to put anything on a grave. In the almost two years that we have been coming to visit our grandson's resting place nothing like this has ever been done. While there may be a rule, it is not well known. At the very least, some sort of notification or posting would have been appreciated. So while I give Curlew 5 stars for all the planning and handling of the service, I have to give them a 1 star for this situation.

From the moment Curlew Hills staffed picked up my loved one in the middle of the night from my home, until the time I picked up the remains, the staff was extremely sensitive, efficient and professional. I worked directly with Cassandra Santilli. She was kept me informed through out the entire process.nnIt has been the most difficult moment in my life, I am very grateful the quality of service Curlew Hills provided.

I was attended by Jacob, who assisted us with the cremation of my daughter. He made an incredibly difficult time in my life and my partners life a little easier to process. The staff here is very professional and comforting. I am deeply grateful for the care and expedience they have shown us. I wish everyone who works here all the best.

With the sudden passing of my brother, only one thing was decided; who would handle his remains. Have dealt with Curlew Hills for my parents and sister and now my brother. Always handled with the utmost respect and efficiency.
