Lakeside Memory Gardens has become a home for me and my two boys. After the unexpected loss of our 2.5 year old youngest son, they were so compassionate in the process and everything moved so effortlessly. The grounds are so beautiful, and visiting is always so peaceful. I am so grateful to have a place to come and be with my boy.
