Provided by Superpagesit is very disgusting to see no decorations, no peonies, no shrubs, anything that would make it pleasant, or easy to visit a place of final rest. it is vandalisium, and robery to destroy these things that were bought and paid for by private persons. the beauty is totaly gone. someone does not respect what was once a beautiful place.It is just plain lazy not wanting to take care of a final resting place. No respect for the thousands who are buried there. The cost alone is just afull for what is given in return. to little for too much. we will never buy a lot there because. It was the place to be at one time,because of the beauty of the place. It is a totally a downer to go there now knowing that what a person would decorate with will be thrown in a dumperster within 24 hours or less we have seen proof of this. again it is robbery to remove personal property off a paid for private lot. and to deatroy living things that have been there for over a hundred years is a disgrace. shame on u

We were at Linwood since my grandfather was being buried there. After the services at the Chapel my mother, sister, her boyfriend, 2 of their children, me, my partner and our 2 children, my cousin, her husband and her 2 children drove around to the gravesite, my fathers gravesite is right next to it. So we put a flower on his then some guy came out and explained that we cant be by the hole they had dug. As we turned to return to our cars Jon Perry came out screaming at us to get out of there that we were told not to come up there ( we were told no such thing until we talked to the first guy who was pleasant and we were already returning to our cars). We then just explained that we wanted to put a flower or two in the side vase on the stone, He then took the flower and threw it in the hole and continued to scream at us to get out of there and that he is calling the police and that we are now banned from the cemetery. My mother was pleaing with him to show some respect and empathy for our family. We then said we would just go and talk to the office about his behavior. He followed us down to the chapel where the chapel assistant was leaving and he continued to scream at us while we are talking to the chapel assistant about what he had just done. He called the police and we got his name and we left since the office wasn't open. As we have been in contact with the office we find out that Jon Perry of Dubuque, Iowa who is the Groundskeeper has been lying and denying events of the horrific incident! We have been in contact with others that have had to work with Jon Perry through other companies that have work contacts with linwood that this isn't the only issue of something like this that has involved Jon Perry. If you are going to bury a loved one and consider linwood, you may want to reconsider as long as Jon Perry is employed for linwood. Please don't let your family have to deal with this kind of treatment when they are mourning.
