Green burial available at St. Joseph Cemetery

Here at St. Joseph Funeral Home, we believe care and conservancy of the environment can continue beyond earthly life. To contribute to the sustainability of the environment, we are proud to be certified by the Green Burial Council in order to provide an eco-friendly burial service for you or your loved one. In order to be resourceful, both financially and environmentally, we avoid the use of chemicals and offer biodegradable burial containers, although embalming is an option with this service.

Burials are located next to our beautiful Czarnecki Garden. It is flourishing with vibrant colors and is well maintained for the convenience of you and your family. In remembrance of you or a loved one, we provide a brass name plaque, which is located in the area of the burial. This is included in the cost of the service.

We would be happy to guide you at any time to the exact location of your loved one using a marker based on longitude and latitude that would bring you within inches of where they are buried.
