Folsom Pioneer Cemetery

"Stay away from Wendy S. She has written and notarized a letter to remove me from the contract after I buried my only son at lakeside lawn…
Her letter stating that I “was not present, and she crossed out lines of where my signature would normally be”. I have my name and my signature on the contract(attached). I emailed the company and attached my copies of contract where all thee have signed: my ex, Wendy and I. I attempted to discuss with management and they just ignored my request told me to proceed legally with this matter. My ex wanted to remove me from the contract so I can’t participate in arrangements and headstone. Wendy followed his instructions and ended up drafting fraudulent letter about my signature in her written statement.
I just file a complaint and looking for a good attorney to represent me."

"My mother was buried in this cemetery almost 15 years ago. She was dying when she chose the plot she would be buried in and my father bought the plot next to her. We were told it was the end of the row and no one would be buried to the side of her.
I visit my mother all the time, generally twice a month. Unfortunately, it's been about two months since I have last been there. I have always found this cemetary to be a place where I find solace. I love sitting on the bench by my mom and thinking. I love looking at the tree that looks like elves live in it. My dogs enjoy coming with me to visit my mom.
Today my visit was rather upsetting. Someone was buried next to my mother. Not only where we told that she would be the end of the row, which is WHY she chose that spot, They made an absolute mess and left a massive hole right next to my mothers headstone which I twisted my ankle in as I was pondering the situation, then my puppy fell in the hole. It is literally almost degrading the side of my mothers headstone. I am Jewish and we put stones on our loved ones headstones. All the stones I had placed and buried right next to her headstone are gone. I had a beautiful heart stone. Gone. Years and years of memorializing my mom is gone. I cried. I find this a flagrant disrespect to my mother and my family.

So I called Miller funeral home. I spoke to a nice guy who passed my message on. I got a call shortly thereafter from Wendy. I texted Wendy back and sent her these photos. She told me that I must have misunderstood, that that area was always supposed to have someone buried in it. Then she said, oh it must have changed as they were going to put a walkway in and then realized they couldn't. So NO I did not misunderstand. You all changed what you said and now you're doing what you want. She also told me to only put flowers and not rocks as it causes issues for their lawn maintenance. I'm sorry, a few small stones ON my moms headstone or right next to it causes your lawn guy that many issues? Do you not realize how many Jewish cemeteries with rocks are maintained? If the few stones I leave on occasion cause that many issues for your lawn guy, perhaps you need a better lawn mower, or lawn guy!
And I was told they will talk about changing their policy to not allow stones. Again, how incredibly disrespectful to an entire religion. I am above an beyond shocked right now by the behavior of the people at this funeral home/cemetery.

Death and memorializing my loved ones, especially my mother, is incredibly important to me. I know feel as though the people who work here cannot be trusted to respect the wishes of the deceased and their families in the long run.
Sounds like you need both sensitivity and culture training. How do you not know the traditions of others religious when it comes to death when working in the death industry? Do better."
