In fact all the cemeteries in that area (Pride of Boston) look well cared for. Your organization should be proud

"With the help of your Web site, we were able to do a mitzvah and traveled to Boston from our home in New York to visit our mother's parents and brother's graves at Chevra Shas Cemetery in West Roxbury and were impressed by the wonderful condition of the cemetery. We thank you for your excellent website that enabled us to locate the cemetery."
