The Cemetery committee calls upon all parishioners both those living in our area and those who live away, to please remember our cemetery. Perpetual care for our loved ones must remain a priority. This care could be in the form of family donations in memory of a loved one and could be donated on days of remembrance such as Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, etc. Another area of monetary service could be to remember our cemetery in your will and/or estate wishes.

Etransfers directly to the cemetery:

The cemetery happily accepts donations made via Etransfer. Please send along your donation via Etransfer in memory of your loved one to : stjosephholyfamilycemetery@gmail.com. Please provide your name and mailing address in the message line of the Etransfer to ensure you receive your income tax receipt at the end of the fiscal year. Thank you again for your generous support!!

The sole source of funding for the St. Joseph’s Holy Family Cemetery is through the sale of plots, and by donations. All donations and bequeaths can be sent to the Cemetery Committee through the Parish Office.

Several pieces of equipment are needed to keep our cemetery looking as beautiful as it does. A lawn tractor, rototiller, whipper snippers, lawn mowers, aerator, shovels, rakes and much more are needed to do the job of maintaining a cemetery. It takes a lot of hard work and equipment to achieve the results that you the parishioners of St. Joseph’s and Holy Family enjoy.

All money given to our cemetery has been and always will be used for our cemetery. No monies have been or will be taken out of the parishes to be given to our cemetery for operation. The committee welcomes any input by you the parishioners as our cemetery belongs to all of us.

Respectfully,
St. Joseph’s Holy Family Cemetery Committee
