Had a great time roaming the cemetery and learning about the folks buried there, as well as their place in the history of Chicago. Could have gone on longer!

The team was very responsive to communication when I had a time-sensitive question. They were also gracious when we missed an email from them earlier in the week and were patient when we arrived a few minutes late to the tour. Amanda, the tour guide, was knowledgeable and a total pleasure to spend time with. We learned a lot and had a great time doing it. I'm hoping that there will be tours at different locations offered in the future. I'm a big fan and would love another chance to support these folks!
