Parkway Funeral Home & Parkway Memorial Cemetery

“Well, I’ll leave my review as I told the girl who helped me. I’m so very very ashamed for you that you have no sorrow for the ridiculous prices that you charge. I was absolutely stunned and blown away with discussed that you would be bold enough to charge a family $3000 to open and close a burial plot. I’m certain you must be ashamed of your profession as you clearly take advantage of people with these rates I may put her in the ground, but I’ll never come back and visit. I absolutely despise Parkway and I will blow to the wind with my ashes before I ever have funeral plans with you all again.”

“This was once the premier cemetery for Madison County until SCI Dignity purchased it a long time ago. In 200I, I purchased a companion crypt in their mausoleum for my parents. My father passed in 2006 at which time the streets needed paved and the building maintenance was suspect. In August of 2024, I buried my mother, at which time the place looked terrible and no routine maintenance is occurring. This past weekend I drove over from Texas and was horrified to see the condition of the mausoleum and the cemetery. First, the front gate was locked for the entrance side and I had to enter on the exit side. The roads are horrific--never having been repaved in decades, and there were small ponds of water in sections of the roadway. The window's seals have failed over the years and they look horrific. The tile floors haven't been buffed and waxed since it was constructed, and the place was dirty, cold and smelled. As I departed, there was a man inside a small SUV with a flashing light on top of it, that said Parkway Memorial Security on the side of it. Who has to have security at a cemetery? Why was the entrance gate locked on a Sunday at noon? I don't know what is going on there but am about to get to the bottom of it. I am absolutely horrified that my parents are there and am prepared to file complaints with the state regarding the lack of perpetual care of the cemetery. Is this were you want your loved one to permanently rest?”

“Our experience with Parkway was top of the line. Rendi Hernandez worked closely with us during the entire process from beginning to end. She was fabulous and I can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Her quiet patience and ongoing support and availability assisted us during a very difficult time.”
