Planning for the Future
With any big decision in life, it is always helpful to research and consider options, and a final resting place is no exception. Whether you are preparing for a burial of a loved one or planning for a future burial, knowing in advance that a final resting place is secured can alleviate added emotional stress of family members when a death occurs. Many families are purchasing mausoleums or tombs as part of their legacy. Here at St. Charles Borromeo Cemetery, we have mausoleum crypts and cremation niches, along with single door tombs available for purchase. We are in the process of building additional single and double door tombs. If you are interested in purchasing a mausoleum or tomb, or learning more about the cost, please call the Administration Office.
