Columbarium & Memorial Garden

St. David's has an attractive Memorial Garden with a 48-niche sculptured bronze columbarium on the east side of the church. It was blessed on Sunday, November 11, 2001 by Bishop Jim Waggoner. An exposed-aggregate walkway and patio area was added in 2002. Three decorative concrete benches and four planters were installed in memory of loved ones. Brass-colored plaques commemorate those whose ashes are inurned in the columbarium or buried in the memorial garden, and those in whose memory donations to the garden were given.

Niches may be purchased by parishioners at a cost of $400 each. Because of the columbarium's modular style, additional niches can easily be added in the future. Brass nameplates on the niches identify the purchasers. A separate trust fund accounts for income and expenses. A committee of six maintains the garden and provides supervision.

If you are interested in purchasing a niche, or have a question about the columbarium and memorial garden, please call the church office or send an e-mail message.
