Holy Name Cemetery and Mausoleum is excited to announce that it will host its last Open House Weekend of 2026 on Saturday, November 7, and Sunday, November 8. The open house will be open from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM at their location on 823 West Side Avenue, Jersey City, NJ. For those seeking a final resting place for their loved ones, this is a unique opportunity to secure burial options with invaluable financial support.
During this event, families are welcome to take advantage of a remarkable, limited-time offer: 0% interest financing for 48 months. This financing option will be unavailable after the open house weekend, making this a crucial event for Hudson County families looking for peace of mind and affordability in their final arrangements. Holy Name Cemetery proudly represents the only cemetery in Hudson County that still has Catholic burial spaces available, providing families a chance to lay their loved ones near their cherished parishes, neighborhoods, and communities.
At the Open House Weekend, attendees can expect a warm welcome from Caring and Professional Memorial Planning Advisors who will provide important information, answer questions, and offer guidance on the various burial options available. Visitors can explore the beautiful park-like environment of Holy Name Cemetery, including traditional cemetery plots, private family estate lots, and in-ground family estates.
The two-day event doesn't require an appointment, allowing families to drop in as they please. This open house will also feature guided tours of the mausoleum, showcasing its climate-controlled chapels adorned with gorgeous liturgical art, magnificent marble crypts, and beautifully crafted cremation niches. The serene environment ensures that families can visit their loved ones regardless of the season or weather conditions.
"Planning ahead is one of the most loving gifts you can give your family," states Joseph Heckel, Executive Director of Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Newark. He emphasizes that pre-planning helps spare families from making difficult decisions during a time of grief while ensuring that their loved ones' wishes are honored.
Highlights at the open house include:
- - 0% interest financing for 48 months, available only during the Open House Weekend.
- - Guided tours of the climate-controlled mausoleum with impressive chapels featuring marble crypts and stained-glass artwork.
