In Ground Burial
Traditional in-ground burial is for both casketed and cremated loved ones. Typically a permanent graveside marker is used.
Cremation
Since 1963 cremation has been approved within the Catholic Church. Cremation is an eco-consciousness choice for many.
Above Ground
Mausoleums, columbariums, private family mausoleums, or cremation walls are all options for above-ground burials for loved ones.
Grief Support
You are not alone. While everyone else appears to have moved on, our small-group, faith-based support program can be a soothing and healing space. Listen and learn, and come away with new and useful perspectives.
While no one experiences grief the same, there is a shared experience of loss. Come join us in our Diocesan-wide small group, bereavement support program. All are welcome.
