Ashes can either be picked up by the family or the Funeral Director can arrange the transfer of ashes to the parish office at St. Mary's to enable interment to proceed.
Niches
Niches may be purchased at the time of breavement but is preferable to purchase in advance, especially where family grouping is required. The parish office can advise on the location of the few remaining available niches. An application form is on the back page or one can be downloaded from our website.
Plaques
A bronze plaque of standard size and design is affixed to the wall over each niche. Plaques can be inscribed according to the family's wishes and there is always the offer of assistance in deciding just what to say if need be.
Headstones
Single or double headstones are available for those who prefer to have their loved one's ashes placed into the Memorial Garden. Small plaques can be made to surmount the headstones.
Interment Service
For those who desire it a brief interment service can be conducted by one of the clergy. The cost for this is included in the plaque fees.
