First and foremost I would like to thank the entire staff. The employees here are very nice and very sympathetic! I have past family members here also. The placing of my Mom & Stepdad together for their final resting was hard but you all made it a bit easy. Thank you again Holy Cross Cemetery.🙏🏼💖

I have numerous family members at HC cemetary as well as Cypress, Italian, and Olivet, even the Pet Rest. My only complaint is that HC cleans ALL decorations every week. No matter if the flowers are fresh or not. ALL is cleared. The other Cemetaries clear only if delapidated or old. HC does maintenance in gas carts, while Cypress etc. does maintence by foot. Hence, twice a week I drive to move decorations from one cemetary to another. Guess it Rotation at its best....

A lot of my loved ones are buried here. The lawn and roadways are well kept by the grounds keepers. Most of the plots have a nice view, it's nice to sit peacefully with loved ones in this beautiful place.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

They're divided by sections and then row number and plot number. Row n plot number are etched on the tombstone. You need to call Holy Cross to find out which section, row n plot number the person is in.

Why are the different areas NOT marked more appropriately, especially for the elderly that come long distances to visit on special days. I spent 2 hours searching for someone on July 4, 2019, no luck. Maria Elena Barr

You right, I've visited this cemetery, almost daily for the last 11 years, and sometimes I help people find, the place they're looking for, and sometimes it's hard to find the place. you have to make a suggestion, to the administration for a better indication of the different areas of this cemetery

Yes. Try calling first due to covid they might have different office hours but If you go to the main office they will ask for the name of the deceased and year of burial (it's ok if you dont have the year) they will show you exactly where they are buried.

I am having trouble keeping the urns with flowers on my parents graves. Visitors are either moving the arrangements or throwing the flowers away and taking the urn. There use to be abundant urns in the flower staging areas, but no more.

Depending on the location, there is a scheduled day for weekly cleaning. Flowers are removed which possibly includes the "cones" they are in. There are also geese in the area who drink water from those "cones". Those geese may be the ones moving the flowers to get to the water.
