Its a beautiful place but I don't go up there anymore because I spent a lot of money trying to make someone's grave look nice on flowers and ornaments and someone kept throwing my stuff away and because I did it back to them to see how they liked it because I got sick of it what they put down twice a year ,they started trying to create drama not being completely honest with the staff who support me down the phone ringing them telling them to pass on messages to me which can be classed as harrassment,I'm trying to move on with my life,the staff knocked on my door telling me plus there was a nasty disrespectful card left on someone's grave telling them to carry on chatting up the girls in heaven before that,I stopped going up there, i had enough of people I blocked on Facebook and Instagram nearly three years trying to start drama in my life who can't admit it when they are in the wrong so I don't go up there anymore and I havent been since before this lockdown we are in now.

It's a beautiful place but I don't go up there as much as I used to now because I like to avoid certain people who go there and they put flowers on their son's grave twice a year once on his birthday and once on the anniversary of his death they have a funny way of showing that they miss him they'd rather go on expensive holidays rather than buy flowers that cost what £5 at the most theyre a bunch of bullies and cheapskates they throw away our orgments and flowers some of them which were very expensive and quite rare they blame other people for their screw ups and blame other people instead

They provide audio-visual so you can have a photo tribute to music. They can also live-stream and record the ceremony over the web for people (e.g. frail and can't travel, or living overseas) who are unable to attend
