Arlo Clark-Foos — Beautiful green (all natural) cemetery. My father is buried here (love you, Dad) and many many many years from now my Mom will be too, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Jacqui Ackerman — What an amazing place, run by the most fantastic people! We were attracted to the idea of a green burial, and the "unconventional" park-like setting was ideal.

Justin Laughter — I can't accurately express how awesome this place is. Not only is green burial something to absolutely consider but the staff at Carolina Memorial Sanctuary are the real reason to consider this place. From the initial contact all the way through the burial process the staff was friendly, understanding,... Read more and incredibly respectful. Cassie and Matt lead our family, in the midst of an impossible time, through each step of the process with grace that I can't even explain. We felt cared for, we felt respected, and we felt the final wishes of a young son, brother, and friend were honored the the best way possible. The closure gained through their process is unlike anything i've ever experienced. The site, while unconventional, really gives nature a chance to show off on this beautiful property. A full time steward sees to the grounds and the natural beauty is hard to describe. Its a awesome place to lay some to rest. I highly recommend! Read less
