Unmarked graves at parish cemetery – honor the dead

Ground penetrating radar at St. Francis Borgia Cemetery has discovered almost 200 unmarked graves, including a plot with 46 babies. No records exist showing who these souls are or when they were buried.

Help us remember these unknown and forgotten souls by marking each grave with a cross and erecting a granite memorial for the babies. Contributions can be dropped in the collection basket at Mass or sent to the parish office. Checks should be made payable to “St. Francis Borgia Cemetery Fund” with “Cemetery Memorials” noted on the memo line. Gifts of any amount are appreciated.

Should you have questions about this project, please contact Brian Willbrandt, cemetery coordinator, via the parish office or send him an email.
