About Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery
Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery is a dedicated and compassionate service provider for the deceased, offering hope and consolation through shared beliefs of Resurrection. The cemetery grounds are available to all Catholics, practicing and non-practicing. The team at Holy Cross believes that bodies should be treated with the utmost respect even after death, ensuring that loved ones are in good hands. The cemetery is well-organized and clean, though it faces a challenge with over 100 Canadian geese that often leave droppings on tombstones and grass, sometimes pulling out new flowers. Despite this, the staff is professional and caring, guiding families through necessary processes and documents in a timely and compassionate manner. The groundskeeper is especially appreciated for his kindness and willingness to help visitors find loved ones, even going into mausoleums to assist. Families who have used Holy Cross's services often describe it as a serene and well-tended final resting place. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, whether planning ahead or dealing with a recent loss. Located at 1500 Mission Rd, Colma, CA 94014, Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery also offers pre-planning services and short-notice burial arrangements. Visitors frequently mention the friendly and accommodating personnel, with staff members like Leslie Bradshaw providing helpful support to ensure all arrangements are done as requested. Overall, the caring nature of the staff and the respectful environment make it a comforting place for families during difficult times.
I went to Holy Cross Cemetery to visit a very dear friend whose funeral I missed. He was interned in the mausoleum. After searching for over 30 minutes, I was unable to locate him. Luckily I stumbled across Luis, one of the groundkeeper. Showing him the location where my friend is interned, Luis confirmed All Saints Mausoleum was in another location in the cemetary. Luis personally took me to All Saints; furthermore, he went into the mausoleum to help locate my friend. Without Luis' help, there was no way I could have personally find my friend. Luis' kindness and help certainly made my day. Thank you, Luis!
My died suddenly immediately after she had completed her session at the Dayalacis center. She suffered a heart attack and she was dead within a second. There was no time for me to prepare for her death. But her body was picked up immediately from the center and within days she was prepared for burial. Holy Cross was instrumental in providing a crypt for my wife and a final interment all within days. My wife got a very good send-off with a funeral mass at St. Anne's Church and within hours she was interred and is now resting comfortably at Holy Cross.
