Why Choose a Catholic Cemetery?

When we are baptized, we are brought to a sacred place, a Catholic church, and baptized into the Mystery of Christ's death and resurrection — thus giving us the promise of Eternal Life. Since death is a natural part of life, it is only fitting that the Catholic Church also be present at the time of death. For this reason, when one of our loved ones die, the Church provides sacred places - Catholic cemeteries, for burial in sacred ground while they await the Resurrection of the dead and the promise of Eternal Life. Choosing a Catholic cemetery as a final resting place is a statement of your belief that, even in death, the people of God await the resurrection of the body and Everlasting Life.

Catholic cemeteries hold the earthly remains of our family members and friends who have shared their love, fellowship, and faith with us. Although a grave in a cemetery evokes sadness, a grave in a Catholic cemetery is also a sign of hope in God and His Promise of Everlasting Life.

At Holy Family Cemetery, our mission is to ensure that the proper interment, memorialization, and perpetual care of our sacred grounds is provided in the tradition of the Catholic Church. Because we realize that Catholic cemeteries are an extension of the ministry provided in your parish community, we strive to make Holy Family Cemetery a gathering place of remembrance, consolation, and communal support., by centering all of our activities, whether temporal or spiritual, on the resurrection faith of the Church. Holy Family Cemetery is committed to providing Catholic burials for generations to come.
