An Historical cemetery of the town Keilor. You'll find the grave of Ellen Blanche, a nine-year-old daughter of Ebenezer and Elizabeth Bonfield who was buried April 1856. Very well kept grounds which are expanding with the addition of ”Gallery of the Saints” Mausoleum extension. There is some parking throughout the ground and many trees to keep the sun at bay.nnIt's interesting when reading a plaque displayed in the cemetery you will notice deaths between 1856-1890 of people buried in this cemetery 8 were older than 90 and 3 over 100 years of age.
-------ZERO stars -------nAbsolutely LIVID. What was meant to be a day to say goodbye to my grandma was spent waiting for the cemetery staff to finish digging her grave. Yes, on the day of the funeral and burial!nShould have been done by 12pm if not earlier, we turned up to find a machine halfway through the job and no staff. Called the cemetery, no answer. Funeral service called the cemetery, no answer.nWorkers eventually decided to turn up and finish the job with no apology and no sense of urgency.nElderly guests were forced to stand around for 1 hour plus and my grandma missed the optimal burial time that was so carefully preplanned by relatives and religious priests. The cemetery had plenty of notice.nAbsolutely unprofessional, there is no excuse and it is NOT OK to do this to any family. Hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.
Very peaceful and I will be joining my parents there.nI have just peace, and respect for those who are laid to rest there.nnAnd I am very happy to be able to be laid to rest there myself.nnJust one thing I would like to see, is it kept tidy.nThat's just basic human decency.nWould those who work there, like to live in a dirty house..?nnThe new burial area is muddy and unkempt.nnBeing there to see loved ones is disappointing andnupsetting.nThe monuments are often glorious, but, their surroundingsnare putrid, filthy, and it is absolutely heartbreaking to see.nnThat forced me for one reason.. to pay a digging fee, and benburied in a section that IS nicely kept for the most part, and ofncourse near my loved ones.nnThe cemetery should look after that area with more care - and respectnfor those who are left there to RIP.nnThey wouldn't let their homes have a 'garden' like that; mud everywhere...nnSo, show some respect to those who've chosen to spend eternity there, and clean it up please!!!

Really disappointed. An unsealed internal roadway adjacent to our family plot means that it is either dusty in summer or muddy in winter. We enquired about whether it was to be sealed over a decade ago when determining a grave for our loved ones and were told it would be asphalted. When contacted recently a sympathetic employee told me that her enquiries further up the management ladder yielded no joy. There are no plans to seal the road which is used as a thoroughfare. Other roads in the new area are schmick! There is rubbish constantly strewn around which has become worse since the Cemetry was taken over recently. We visit to clean up regularly but I’m worried about what will happen in the future.
