Catholic Cemeteries
The Diocese of Trenton operates St. Mary Cemetery/Mausoleum, a 35-acre cemetery with four large mausoleums at the corner of Cedar Lane and Olden Avenue, Trenton. With an endowed perpetual care fund, St. Mary Cemetery/Mausoleum provides a sacred, well-cared for, and peaceful setting, with in-ground burials, crypt entombments and niches for cremains.
The diocesan Office of Cemeteries is available to the many parish cemeteries for leadership, and sees its work, not as a business, but a work of mercy. The office offers
- full-time personnel to counsel the bereaved and arrange for dignified interment services as part of the Christian burial ceremony
- ground and building maintenance
- careful record keeping
Currently, the office is seeking suitable property for a new cemetery in Burlington County.
