Today more than half the purchases of burial space in the Catholic Cemeteries are made prior to death. Experience has shown that upon the death of a loved one, we can easily become overwhelmed and distressed by both emotional and financial strain. So many details and expenses have to be arranged in just a few days that the consolations of our Catholic faith are sometimes lost. The selection and purchase of a burial or entombment site need not be one of those last-minute decisions. Purchasing in advance (pre-need) shows prudence and Christian Charity to those you hold dear. You and your family can take the time to make a decision that best suits all of your needs in a deliberate manner. The Catholic Cemeteries Counseling Service allows you to make thoughtful pre-need decisions without pressure. Most appointments take place at the cemetery of your choice, however, home visitation can be requested with no obligation to buy. Kindly consider the advantages of pre-need planning:
