As Catholics, we are baptized, confi rmed and married in the Church. We strive to live our lives in harmony with the teachings of the Church. When we pass from this life, the fi nal expression of our faith on earth is to have a burial in a Catholic Cemetery. Here we are able to rest at peace among our fellow Catholics and we have shown our reverence and respect for the body. Catholic Cemeteries offers a wide range of options. Services include grave space permitting upright, slant, and fl at granite memorialization, lawn crypts and traditional family plots. We also offer affordable indoor and outdoor above-ground cryptsites in our elegantly appointed community mausoleums. For those choosing cremation, both marble and glass-enclosed niches are available. The Church believes that the cremated body must be treated with the same dignity and respect that the physical body receives. To memorialize a life forever, a variety of options have been provided including single and companion niches. Benefi ts of a Catholic Cemetery 1. Sacred Grounds Consecrated by the Church 2.
