I recently visited Linwood Cemetery and was pleasantly surprised with the service I received. First I stopped at the office where I was kindly greeted by two young women who helped me by mapping out where all my family was interred. They took the time to explain to me not only where my family was at, but if they had tombstones or not.
Well kept, excellent service.
It is a very large and nice cemetery situated above Dubuque, providing fantastic views of downtown & the Mississippi river. The road leading to it is uphill and winding. I didn't really find any parking as I drove through the grounds, just a few little pull offs to the side of the road. Grounds were kept well. Peaceful. Lots of American flags were flying when we visited, right after Memorial Day.
My son who is 3 months shy of 18 went to put a flower on his girlfriends grave who died off pneumonia at the age of 15,one of the staff proceeded to yell at my son that only 18 year olds and over could come in,is this true,because as long as he was not hurting anyone or anything he should of been fine to say good bye to his loved one,what type of cemetery are you running he the worker threatened to call the cops on him,im so glad I got my plot for my family at mount calvary l I will never recommend linwood cemetary to anyone,as a matter of fact my ex boyfriend just died and was buried there last week a big mistake on his familys part all my son wanted to do was say he missed her what a waste of a beautiful cementary maybe the TH might want to know about whats going on about visiting of peoples loved ones
It is a beautiful old cemetery where my family has a sectioned off family-plot. I have visited a handful of times but was disappointed this last time to see that the largest family monument lost its top. I know these things happen, but I would have liked to been able to find an office or someone to help me so that I might give my information in case the stone further deteroriates, then they may contact me. It was also a little more difficult to navigate- I think some of the markers pointing the way have disappeared or writing has worn away. Still, a loving resting place and always quiet and peaceful to visit.
From the office I began my adventure into the cemetery. I was very impressed with the amount of unique statues and stones I saw. Using the map I received from the office I was able to locate all but one of the grave sites. I was approached by a large gentleman on a motor cart who introduced himself as the grounds manager and asked if he could assist me. I showed him the map, and he pointed me right to the site. I thanked him for his assistance. He said if I needed anything else to let him know. I've been to cemeteries all over the area doing my family tree and have never received the assistance I have at Linwood. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! A++++++
