“To experience the loss of someone I love that died by suicide is heart wrenching. Words fail me as I describe the person I loved so much; the words of others fall short of consolation. Hope seems lost and though I am aware that my faith will sustain me I feel so empty.”

Grief in any loss is hard. The journey is difficult, seems to last forever and is a singular walk, even though others are walking beside me. These Died by Suicide offerings can help you share the common experience of a sorrow that will not go away. Prayer, affirmation of the grief process, and some coping ideas will be part of the work. All who have experienced a loved one’s death by suicide are welcome.

Two opportunities:

*Died By Suicide: January 31st- 7-8:30 PM Holy Name Parish Center. 1555 39th Avenue San Francisco (more…)

2017 Flower Removal Schedule

Flower Removal 2018

Did you make a New Year’s resolution? New Year’s is a time of planning . . . planning ahead for the year, planning a strategy to keep our resolutions, financial planning . . . Have you made a resolution to take care of your will and trust? Do you have a spot at the cemetery? Have you decided what kind of memorial service and urn you would like? Have you prepared an Advanced Health Care Directive?

Today, many people see the value of planning ahead. When a death occurs, there are numerous decisions to be made during a very emotional time. Holy Cross offers Pre-Need arrangements to assist you in making some of those decisions ahead of time. In order to make Pre-Need arrangements available to everyone in our Catholic community, we offer flexible payment plans and do not charge interest. You may specify the manner of placement and memorialization that best reflects your life and faith. Once a Pre-Need arrangement is complete, the family needs only to call us to notify us of a death.

The financial advantages to pre-paying for your funeral plan are many. Most importantly, it guarantees your costs against future price increases.
We’re happy to help you keep your New Year’s resolutions. Make an appointment to see one of our family service counselors and take care of your cemetery arrangements today.
