Our Lady of Lourdes Parish is blessed to have a mid-sized parish cemetery. It is located on Alt 13 just beyond the town limits of Blades. The cemetery is administered by a board, made up of dedicated volunteers who oversee the perpetual care and maintenance of the cemetery.

The newest section with about 600 grave sites is named the St. Bernadette Section. There is a combination of smaller plots for cremated remains and traditional grave sites

Twice a year there is a cemetery Mass, on Memorial Day and the First Saturday of November.

Information about the purchase of burial plots can be obtained by inquiring at the parish office.

                              

The Cemetery Board is made up of the following members: Jane Horn, Mario Dobrich, Doug & Cyndie Figgs, Ernie & Martha Davis, Paulette Sammons, Leanne Phillips-Lowe, Carlos & Kathleen Alvarez. Richard & Maureen Rubino, and Lynn Amaty. Angie Custer-Houtmann is an emeritus member and a consultant. Fr. John McKenna is the chairman of the Cemetery Board.
