Clinton Lawn Cemetery 2610 Manufacturing Drive, Clinton, IA 52732

"Well, I went out to the cemetery today because I took the long way and then lo and behold. My dad‘s wreath was stolen. Also, they literally removed the navy bow and the navy sign that was in the wreath and stuck it. The navy sign in the ground and just let the bow lay at the gravesite, so this had been done recently. I went to talk to the office because they were open this time when I discovered the missing wreath at Lemke‘s lawn cemetery. The man in charge in there I’m pretty sure it was a Lemke. I know the female in there. Tina Lemke was there and I don’t know the other office lady I was given her my information this man pipes in, really nasty with me gets even more nastier with me when I remind him that there’s a theft problem out here there has been a problem that’s why we had a come and get all the bronze from the tombstone because they were getting stolen and he’s like yeah that was seven years ago and I said OK then it hasn’t stopped and he’s like yelling at me. I’m in tears because now my dad‘s wreath is missing because I would think the one that stole my mom‘s wreath would come back and steal my dad‘s wreath. Yell at me and tell me that I am in the wrong for being upset is unbelievable. So that’s how they treat you when you’ve lost someone and then someone steals from the dead they yell at you. These people don’t care about your loved ones or your grief, just your money!"

"In late August 2021 my brother and I came to visit the graves of around 15 family members. While there we noticed several of the servicemen's gravestones had a granite base, giving it a more finished and dignified look. I requested help to get that installed for my dad's marker. The office people were extremely attentive. Michelle Goddard helped take down the information, communicated the steps, and said she'd follow-up. Ordering the slab was quick and easy, and wasn't as pricey as I anticipated. Just like she promised, Michelle communicated each step along the way. Now, well before the snow falls, a new granite slab is installed and looks great. The maintenance crew also did some work on the area surrounding my sister's gravesite. The people at Clinton Lawn Cemetery are out working every day to meet the needs of families. They actively maintain the grounds and help clients who want to beautify the final resting place of their loved ones. Their efforts are appreciated."

"It's a good place. I come here a lot."
