After locating internment information and map for grave of my grandmother, I visited Mount Carmel Cemetery.

Completely unsympathetic workers. Entered the grounds before closing time (before posted entrance time 3:45) was told I couldn't enter because they are closing soon, I asked if I could just leave the flowers and go then , worker tells me I'm closing the gates, call 911 to get you out, I don't care.
Ten to twelve of my relatives have been laid to rest in this cemetery. Since I was a young child, I remember my family constantly having issues with gravesite maintenance and all sorts of things. We’ve always paid top dollar and did our best to contribute.

Until my mother passed away, it wasn’t something that I needed to worry about personally. A family friend that visits this cemetery brought to my attention that my mother's grave was damaged, the monument was knocked over, and the foundation was destroyed, and this is not the first incident. The few times that I was able to visit due to active duty military service, there seemed to be minimal issues aside from burials practically overlapping one another and maybe the uneven setting of the plants.

My mother’s brother contacted Mount Carmel cemetery only to be told that we must cover the cost of contracting a monument setter and are personally responsible for removing, storing, and resetting the monument. Although the damage was the fault of the facility and its contractors, the foundation that they damaged will be repaired, BUT how exactly is the family of the deceased responsible for repairing/resetting/whatever?? Unfortunately, most of the family is out of state, so this matter is not a simple one with a simple resolution. I hope with all the might I possess that this dilemma is rectified with haste. The heartache Mount Carmel shares with those who trust to bury their families here are unacceptable.

As a kind and genuine forewarning, please consider where you bury your loved ones. Do research, visit the cemeteries, try to learn the maintenance and management that your kin might be looked over by for eternity.
I called Mt Carmel next door because the Mt Neboh phone is always busy. I was told the Mt Neboh office is permanently closed and Mt Carmel has taken them over. I have not been there yet to see the condition of the graves.
Rabbi Reuben Grozowsky is buried right next to Rabbi Yakov
Terrible.
My mother in low monument was moved out from foundation and almost fall and also ivy shrubs was removed from her grave. I complained to the office and it is already more than three month they doing nothing.
When I call, they gave me new excuses every time

After locating internment information and map for grave of my grandmother, I visited Mount Carmel Cemetery. Unable to locate the grave myself, I was fortunate to find two gentlemen workers who very kindly and graciously took the time to orient me in the right direction and also to mark the directions on a map. I was then able to locate the grave without much trouble. All in all a very positive experience.
When visiting my family there, I witnessed a maintenance (grave digger?) man pissing on someone's grave and monument just a short walk from the cemetery office where bathroom is located. He didn't even mind that I looked at him while he was relieving himself!! I have 4 graves there and this felt awful and heartbreaking for me!!
A Florida man has brought a $5 million negligence lawsuit against a Queens chapel and cemetery, claiming they botched his father’s burial by dropping the coffin and causing the corpse to fall out as family members looked on.

Yakov Sherman of Naples is suing the Mount Carmel Cemetery Association and Parkside Memorial Chapels after they allegedly ruined the Nov. 13 burial of his father, Aron Sherman.

“While lowering the coffin into the grave, the defendant’s employees dropped the coffin,” which caused the lid to fall off and “the body of Aron Sherman was ejected from the coffin,” the Brooklyn federal lawsuit alleges.

The body “fell into the dirt of the burial hole” in plain view of relatives, court papers claim. The family was then pushed back while the workers “retrieved” the remains.

A rep with the cemetery declined to comment, while a manager at Parkside Memorial passed the buck, saying, “The cemetery workers who were responsible for handling the casket at the graveside dropped it.”

He added, “The funeral home doesn’t handle the casket at the cemetery.”
Not far from Jewish Center of Ridgewood at 55-39 Myrtle Ave.

This cemetary is beautiful and the old part is spacious. However they don't actually care for it - we paid for lawn that was never planted. They are not the most empathic either. Was told gate closes sharply at 345 and they won't let anyone in after. Wanted to bring my wedding bouquet to my dad's grave but was stuck in traffic and running only 15 min behind. Too bad. Wish the staff had more empathy and weren't such sticklers for rules. A cemetery is the one place where you'd expect compassion to reign.
