REMEMBER YOUR LOVED ONES DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON BY DECORATING THEIR GRAVE, CRYPT OR NICHE WITH A MEMORIAL WREATH.

As a service to the families of those buried or entombed in Calvary, Trinity, Gate of Heaven, and Mary, Queen of Peace Cemeteries, Memorial Wreaths are available through the Erie Diocesan Cemeteries Office.

Each fresh frasier fir wreath, 24 inches in overall diameter, is decorated with cones and a red velvet bow. These wreaths are in accordance with Diocesan Cemeteries guidelines for Winter Cemetery Decorations.

You may order your wreath through our office. The cost of each wreath is $30, including tax. This cost also includes the placement and collection of the wreath from the site.

*Order wreaths by November 31. Cemetery personnel will place wreaths at the site of your loved one in time for the Christmas season.

Please complete one order form for each wreath ordered. (
