St. Michael's Close, A Parish Columbarium & Memorial Garden
The Close provides the parishioners of St. Michael's, their families, and friends a consecrated space to dispose of cremated remains in an attractively landscaped and walled area which serves both as a protected resting place and as a quiet garden of meditation. Ashes may be placed in a niche in a bronze cross which adorns the columbarium room or directly interred in the memorial garden. Bronze plaques are placed on the niches or on the garden wall to serve as memorials. The prayerful atmosphere of the Close is a most beautiful place to remember those loved ones who have died in Christ and have risen to new life.
St. Michael's Close is a self supporting service of the parish with all monies received being designated for further beautification of the area and for perpetual care.
