The Detroit News. Pet cemetery helps owners say farewell John M. Galloway Two fenced-in grave sites are located in Heavenly Acres, a pet cemetery in Genoa Township.
Families can choose a casket and headstone and have the pet laid out for a viewing.
At Heavenly Acres Pet Cemetery, owner Bill Schreiber takes care of the last needs of the smallest, furriest members of the family. Schreiber's cemetery offers grieving pet owners a range of ways to say goodbye, including cremations and private burials that can be topped off with a headstone bearing the image and epitaph of the dearly departed. There's definitely a need for it. A lot of people don't deal with death well anyway. While some may think it strange to spend several hundred dollars to bury a pet, many see it as the only fitting way to say goodbye to man's best friend.
