  Each time we called we spoke with Kevin who was kind and compassionate. He was very helpful in explaining the process and then in coordinating with us so we could pick up the tin. We are very grateful for your help. Thank You Kelly, Nikki and Maddy

  Grieving Pet Owner

  I recently visited the cemetery property to pick up remains after a private cremation, and while the individual who ultimately assisted with the handoff was professional and respectful, the experience leading up to that moment was upsetting - due entirely to the behavior of David Bielski, the owner of both Fern Hill and Petland Cemeteries. I first encountered David in the Fern Hill office when I asked for help locating the correct building. He was sitting with another man and had a barking animal in his lap. The atmosphere was chaotic and unwelcoming - especially for someone arriving in a vulnerable state. The directions he gave were vague and unclear, and I ended up completely lost trying to find the right location. When I finally arrived at the correct building, David was now there - and instead of offering help or acknowledging the confusion, he made a point to tell me I had gone the wrong way, with a tone that felt cold and dismissive. The way he treated me felt extremely condescending and disrespectful - especially as a woman just trying to get clear directions during a difficult time. My family member who was with me also found his tone inappropriate and unnecessary. He then pointed us to another staff member who was polite and professional -no issues there. But David Bielski - a WSU communications graduate and third-generation cemetery owner - should know better. People coming here are grieving. They deserve clarity, kindness, and empathy. Instead, I was made to feel like a burden for asking for directions and like I was foolish for getting lost. This is someone in a long-standing, secure role - he should be setting the example, not making people feel small. If you’re representing a place that serves grieving families, you should be putting your most compassionate and capable people in front. This experience left a lasting negative impression on what should have been a quiet, respectful moment of closure.
