Our Cemeteries
Our Catholic cemeteries are available to all Catholics and their family members, whether or not those family members are also Catholic.
For many people, a certain Catholic cemetery or mausoleum is part of their family’s history. Other people are starting new traditions with us.

In every age of the Church, the faithful have held sacred the places where our loved ones await the resurrection. Our Catholic cemeteries are not simply parcels of land; they are holy ground, blessed by prayer, sustained by tradition, and shaped by faith that death does not have the final word.
Our Catholic cemeteries serve the community with compassion, dignity, and reverence. They are places where grief can be held gently, where memories can be treasured, and where faith can be renewed. They invite us to pray for those who have gone before us and to entrust them again to God’s mercy. In visiting these sacred grounds, we proclaim our belief in the Communion of Saints, that beautiful mystery in which the living and the dead remain united in Christ’s love.
May the Lord, who is our hope and our peace, bless you and your families. And may our departed loved ones intercede for us as we continue on our pilgrimage of life and faith.
Sincerely in Christ,
Most Rev. Joseph Dabrowski CSMA
Bishop of Hamilton
We can help you make plans
The Catholic Cemeteries can help you make your burial arrangements in advance. This is known as pre-arranging. Our approach is pressure-free, because our staff members do not work on commission and have no vested interest in your decisions.
You can pre-arrange, and pay for, your ground lot, cremation niche or crypt, and also a monument or marker. Cremation can also be pre-arranged and paid for.
