My parents and two friends are buried here. My Dad ‘s funeral. WW2 Vet. 21 gun salute .at the funeral home. Next morning. Off to Pakview. We were greeted at the Chapel by a fine bagpiper. Lovely service. After the service at their chapel, I stayed behind to watch Dad carried away on the truck. They threw him. BAM! Onto the truck. Ooops here’s the flowers. Also thrown. BAM!! I’m still traumatized by that. BAM!! Things are taken off the graves. They turned off the water. You need it because you are only allowed to place sheperd’s hooks and planters. People use the place as a park. (The walking track is a 1/2 mile away at Bentley. Go there). I chased a woman to 5 mile and Middlebelt. I was cleaning off the stone. On my knees. The 2024 Silver Escape with Bill Brown license frame on it. Cruised by. Once. Twice. Three .I then hit my alarm. Four times. The woman stopped then took off to the back of the cemetery. I caught up with her as she was leaving. She was very suspicious. She panicked and enlisted the help of an ACE Hardware man. I parked.Waved. She looks like Philly Karen. Be aware. The office is getting her license number tomorrow. That hand painted rock that was taken??. Beautiful. Absolutely heartless. Maybe Philly Karen took it. Put cameras up for crying out loud. !!!!! My Husband is buried in Southfield. High crime city . But at Holy Sephlecure. Guess what?? Our flags. Flag stands and memorabilia are not STOLEN.
They don’t have running water but they provide watering tanks. And when he was buried? 7 children would not leave. The guy who handle the back ho was extremely gentle. It’s called RESPECT . It has been a heartbreaking experience having my parents laid to rest in such a place. Too much to mention. Phil is nice. Get cameras. Get tanks.

This is a beautiful cemetery. The grounds are very well kept and the staff is very polite and professional. My Father In-Law was buried there with full Military Honors and the staff & grounds management went above and beyond to help make sure the service went well.

Very dissappointed on how my family was treated during a recent visit. Harassing a almost 80 year old woman is really low. The workers are rude and disrespectful. Saying its "private property" even though it might be the ones who buried loved ones paid for those plots. Also where is it posted what you can or cant place on the graves? Really hard for me to believe its all "stolen" maybe they need security. I have seen the lawn guys throw stuff away because they are to lazy to go around while mowing... For a place that you would think compassion would be high the majority of workers are heartless.
