Cemeteries Serving the Catholic Community
Since 1857
Since 1857, the ministry of these Catholic Cemeteries is the work of consolation as our part of the ministry of Christ — we reverently bury the dead we compassionately support the living who mourn them

AT
THE
CATHOLIC
CEMETERIES Family Service Counselors are available every day at Holy Cross, Saint Adalbert/Holy Trinity and Mount Olivet Cemeteries. They are on call for All Saints, Calvary, Resurrection and Saint Joseph Cemeteries, so phone ahead for an appointment. Cemetery arrangements are better made before a death has occurred. You put your choices into effect and relieve burdens for family later.
That's peace of mind. Contact a Family Service Counselor

1. AT GRAVES
During the summer months,
1. Flush Markers Graves —
decorations must be in a permanently installed, cemetery approved vase. Anything, except an American Flag, that is stuck in the ground will be removed during periodic cemetery cleanings.
2. Raised Marker Graves — decorations must either be in a vase (as described above) or planted on three sides of a raised marker no more than one-foot away from the grave memorial. Anything, except an American Flag, that is stuck in the ground will be removed during periodic cemetery cleanings..
The Catholic Cemeteries sell six types of silk florals for grave vases. NOTE: All summer grave decorations must be taken by family or friends by Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Any decorations left at graves after that will be removed and disposed of by cemetery workers.
