Fairview Cemetery

Extremely large nice cemetery

This graveyard is set in a wildlife sanctuary. Great mature trees, butterfly gardens and beehives set under a big old willow tree in the back area. Trails are well maintained all year. Just fantastic! The staff are helpful and do a great job.

Ripped up much loved bushes from a family grave, I guess I didn't read the sign properly that was posted in the graveyard, I was told it was also posted on "Facebook" which I cannot find as well, would have been nice to have been properly warned.

I don't normally leave reviews, but this one is really well deserved. My Mother is laid to rest here, and JP and his crew have gone above and beyond to make my Mother's plot beautiful. This cemetary is well managed, and the grounds crew here clearly take pride in their work. I would highly recommend this cemetary to anyone looking for a place for their loved ones to be laid to rest, as they will be in good hands.

We recently buried my Father at Willow’s Rest, the Green Burial section of Fairview Cemetery. It’s a welcoming area of natural beauty in the midst of more traditional manicured lawns and marble stones. A meadow of wild flowers is home for bee hives and butterflies and rimmed with trees and wooden sculpting. My family and I love the idea of the low environmental impact of a green burial and while alive, Dad had expressed pleasure at the idea of being buried under a tree. The day following his passing my brother contacted Mark Richardson, manager of the cemetery, and I spoke with Darlene, on the front desk. Although nothing had been prearranged and we were totally unprepared, they were both very kind and helpful. Later that day, Mark showed us the Willow's Rest area and we selected a plot; under a tree of course. On the day of the burial, much as we were grieving our loss, the peacefulness of the spot made the whole funeral experience very special.
