What do I do when there is a death in my family?

If you already own a cemetery lot, and the deceased’s wishes are known, contact the priest from the person’s parish for prayers and for the consolation of those who are gathered in the presence of the deceased. You will also need to contact your local funeral director. The funeral director will make arrangements on your behalf with the cemetery. If you do not have a lot, you will have to visit the cemetery to select a lot for the burial.
