Our comfort dog, Leo, is spending time today in one of our family gathering areas, near the portraits that share the story of generations of the Meierhoffer family.

For more than 130 years, our family has been honored to serve St. Joseph with care, compassion, and a commitment to the legacy that guides our work today. These portraits reflect the foundation built by those who came before us and the trust families have placed in our care for over a century.

As we prepare for spring maintenance, our semi-annual Cemetery Clean-Up at Memorial Park Cemetery will take place at daybreak on Monday, March 2nd, 2026.

To allow our grounds team to return to regular mowing and upkeep, all remaining flowers, decorations, and personal items will be removed from gravesites during the clean-up process. We kindly ask families to retrieve any keepsakes or items they wish to keep by March 1st. Any items left on the grounds after that time will be respectfully disposed of. With the weather being unseasonably mild we might suggest
that area families take the time to remove their personal items before the last minute.

Thank you for your understanding as we care for these sacred spaces. Please consider sharing this message with others who may have belongings at either cemetery.
