About the CCA

Our Values

Faith – We are committed to performing the Corporal Work of Mercy of burying the dead, and the Spiritual Work of Mercy of praying for the dead.

Family – Family is one of God’s greatest gifts. We respect this gift within our own lives and in the lives of families we serve. We are here to help you and your family make decisions and stay together for eternity.

Trust – We understand the trust placed in us to care for your loved ones. Our unwavering goal is to earn and keep the trust of the families we serve.

Compassion – We aim to serve our families with true compassion and comfort.

Hope – Even in the heart of deep sorrow, we understand and remember the hope of Jesus Christ and His resurrection. This cornerstone of our faith reminds us all that death is not the end, but the start of a new beginning.

Why a Catholic Cemetery

Pre-Planning

Plan Today. Save Tomorrow

Pre-planning involves coordinating the details of your burial ahead of time. This can include reviewing your burial preference, purchasing a grave, and various other burial details.

Markers and Monuments

Personalize Your Memories

Expanded memorialization options are available to you. Let our Family Service Representatives work with you to design a custom memorial that is unique to your family. Choose Multiple or Single Grave Memorials, Raised or Lawn Level, or include the option of etched portraits, where our skilled artisans create an enduring likeness on timeless granite at our facility located at Calvary Cemetery, Cleveland. Proceeds from the purchase of your memorial through the Catholic Cemeteries Association are reinvested into your cemetery.
