Fred Faulkner Lester World War II Medal of Honor Recipient. Served as a Hospital Apprentice First Class U.S. Navy, attached to the 1st Battalion, 22nd Marines, 6th Marine Division as a Medical Corpsman during action against Japanese forces on Okinawa, Shima in the Ryukyu Chain. On June 8, 1945, he saw a wounded marine lying in an open field beyond the front lines following an assault against a strategic Japanese hill position. As he unhesitatingly crawled toward the casualty he was wounded by hostile machine guns. He disregarded the mounting Japanese fire and his own pain to pull the wounded man toward a covered position. Struck by enemy fire a second time before he reached cover, he exerted tremendous effort and succeeded in pulling his comrade to safety. Too seriously wounded to administer aid, he instructed two of his squad in proper medical treatment of the rescued marine. Realizing that his own wounds were fatal, he refused medical attention and expertly directed his men in the treatment of two other wounded marines, succumbing shortly thereafter. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor

Response from the owner:Hi JD, thank you for taking the time to share this incredible story of Fred Faulkner Lester’s bravery and sacrifice. Clarendon Hills Cemetery is truly honored to be the final resting place of Medal of Honor recipients Fred Faulkner Lester, James William Robinson Jr., and Lester William Weber. Their courage, selflessness, and service to our country mean so much, and we are grateful for the opportunity to help preserve their legacies and honor them for generations to come.

After my wife’s passing, I was in shock and grief. My funeral director recommended Clarendon Hills Cemetery where I met with Carey Richardson. Her compassionate care and professional guidance got me through a very difficult time. I am grateful to Carey and all the staff for their kindness and exceptional care during my time of need.

I moved and can't visit my husband like I want to. So glad I can decorate his grave site.

Great experience this year(2025).
The winter cemetery decorations were placed in front of graves early this year before Thanksgiving.
Normally, they weren't placed until the 2nd week of December.

Response from the owner:Thank you for the 5-star review, Eugene! We are so glad you had a great experience this year and noticed the earlier placement of the winter cemetery decorations. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

This is the first time I ordered flowers, they are beautiful. I thought you were putting them on starting December 1 in which case I would have removed the Thanksgiving flowers. I feel they are placed where they could belong to anyone. I felt they would be closer to the grave. This is very disappointing to me. However it was well worth it they are lovely.

Response from the owner:Hi Patricia, thank you so much for your kind words about the flower decorations. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and we’re very glad to hear the flowers were beautiful.

We apologize for any confusion regarding timing and placement. Because several neighboring niches already have permanently placed vases, we positioned your decoration as close to your loved one’s niche as possible without disturbing those existing items. We understand how important it is for these tributes to feel personal and properly placed, and we’re sorry for any disappointment this may have caused.

If you ever have questions about placement or would like us to make adjustments where possible, please don’t hesitate to contact us at (630) 968-6590. We’re always here to help ensure your loved one’s memorial is honored with care.
