The cherished Catholic Funeral Tradition and burial in consecrated ground among fellow believers is the final expression of our faith as Catholics. It is the sacred right, privilege, and calling of every Catholic. Catholic Cemeteries have played a vital role in Southern California since the Spanish Missions. Today, eleven cemeteries and six mortuaries serve the members of our Archdiocese, each connecting us with our history and Christian ancestry. And because they are a responsibility of the church, Catholic Cemeteries & Mortuaries ensure a high level of care that will endure long after that of cemeteries under private or commercial auspices. Catholic Mortuaries are conveniently located within cemetery grounds, allowing families high-quality, full-service funeral home facilities with a selection of  nearby burial options in sacred spaces.
