A new section, in an open, grassy meadow, is bordered by trees and a lovely white fence. Even though quite new, it has quickly become a favorite with families choosing a resting place for their loved ones.Another traditional choice is our serene Memory Garden, right in the heart of the most historic part of Pleasant Forest.
