How appropriately located, since this is one of LSM's "wittier" schemes for fleecing the saints.

Interesting the GTMA website was down for a while, I thought maybe they'd realised what a terrible idea it was and shut it down but no, now it's back up revamped with some kind of "explanation" about GT, no doubt after many saints asked "what on earth is LSM doing getting involved with a cemetery?".
The answer, in typical LSM style (ie "we are the only ones to take a closer look at the situation in California's Cemeteries because we are the Funeral Directors of the Age, and we're going to give you some half truths which may or may not be true but, being LSM pyramid clones you are likely to just believe what we say. In any case, we're not going to mention specifics which we could easily be called out on, so we're just going to keep it quite vague, with a few mentions of our Lord Jesus for good measure, thanks and keep the cheques coming.").......
Many brothers and sisters in the Lord may wonder as to the need for such a project as Grace Terrace. Surely memorial parks like Rose Hills, and Forest Lawn, where many dear saints have been buried, can handle the practical needs of the believers in this regard. But a closer look reveals that the dignity and heritage of such facilities have been steadily eroded, until today, at least in this part of the country, cemeteries that serve the general public have often taken on a frivolous-even idolatrous atmosphere. At certain times of the year particularly, the setting has become altogether common, completely devoid of the sanctification that was such a part of the testimony of the believers during their lifetime. The Bible clearly points us to the importance that the saints of old afforded the matter of their earthly resting-place.
