If you have experienced the death of a loved one, the community of St. Rose of Lima extends our deepest sympathies.
First steps, when arranging a funeral, is to contact the funeral home. The funeral director will assist you and your family in making arrangements and will contact St. Rose of Lima to schedule the funeral and a time for the family to meet with one of our pastoral ministers.
Funeral Mass Planning
Our prayers for your loved one continue long after the funeral service. A special Mass is held each November to honor all those who had a funeral at St. Rose during the previous year.
Family members are invited to attend this special Mass. During the ceremony, we recall the names of those who have died while lighting a candle in their honor, which can be taken home by the family at the end of the Mass.
A reception for the families is held in the parish hall following the Mass. We invite family members to bring a photo of their loved one to place on display during the reception.
