Diocesan Cemetery Policies
Our cemeteries fall under the cemetery policy for the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown. A downloadable PDF copy of the complete Diocesan Cemetery policy is below.
Monument Permits
All monuments (headstones) must be approved prior to installation. This allows us to confirm location, name orientation, and conformity with cemetery policy. Typically the monument company will fill out and submit the form below.
Newsletter/Holy Ground
Below is a copy of our annual finance report and Holy Ground Campaign. In recent years, due to an increase in upkeep costs, we have asked all plot holders to assist annually with the cemetery upkeep cost. We ask for a donation of at least $25 per grave, so we can afford to keep the cemetery in good condition.
Local Cemetery Policies
The Diocesan Cemetery Policy directs that each Catholic Cemetery establish its own local rules. A downloadable PDF copy of the complete St John/St Joseph Cemetery Policy is below (updated 7/1/23)
Easement Transfers
Each Easement lists an Owner(s) as well as the persons assigned to be buried in each space. The owner has the right to change the names for burial at any time. The owner may also petition to pass ownership to a new individual. If the owner(s) are deceased, new ownership can be assigned as per cemetery policy.
*Private party sales are not permitted.
