⛪ Key Diocesan Oversight

For families considering Catholic cemeteries across Monmouth County, including sites like St. Catharine’s (Wall/Sea Girt), St. Rose of Lima (Freehold), or Mount Calvary (Neptune), the cemeteries are managed under the Catholic Cemeteries of the Diocese of Trenton. We work directly with the Diocesan office to ensure all monuments are compliant with their specific design and installation standards.
