Nice maintained cemetery with some unique areas and headstones with gates open from 8am to 5pm everyday. Wildlife is slowly taking over and I am not just talking about the typical squirrels, bird and groundhogs. It started with deer which I have no issues with. Next came foxes which actually have a den in the adjacent Mr. Nebo cemetery. They can be frightening at first but ultimately pose no threat.
Next came the coyotes, yes you read that right. To me this is not an animal you want to see when trying to pay your respects especially realizing you are between a mom and its pup. When we were there

I just want to thank Jolene who was so kind and helpful on the phone with me earlier! It doesnt matter how many times I come here, I will always get lost. Jolene was patient on the phone and gave me exact directions on how to find the grave of my father, and also offered to come out and find me and help me get there if I still needed assistance. Thank you so much.
