St. Joseph Cemetery & Funeral CenterFD1960

History

St. Joseph Cemetery and Funeral Center is among the finest and largest in our community. The lush greens and sprawling vineyards of this historical cemetery are proudly maintained and cared for, creating a peaceful, serene experience for our visitors. St. Joseph cemetery was established in 1914 and is situated upon 58 acres of land. The Good Shepard mausoleum was completed in 1928 and is situated as a center focal point of the cemetery. Our newly constructed funeral center offers beautiful chapels and a large reception room to support the needs of our families. Our mission is to serve our community by offering a complete range of cemetery and funeral options and maintaining a place for prayer, reflection, hope and remembrance for generations to come. The lush grounds are proudly maintained and cared for, creating a peaceful, serene experience for our visitors. In 2008, St. Joseph planted vineyards in the rolling hills of the cemetery to provide grapes for sacramental wine in the Oakland Diocese. Rock Wall Wine Company of Alameda is producing a sacramental rosé wine using 100% of the grapes grown at the cemetery.
