St. Hedwig Cemetery

St. Hedwig Cemetery Founded in 1924, St. Hedwig Cemetery & Mausoleum, Dearborn Heights, has served Catholic families in southeastern Michigan for more than 100 years.

Our sacred grounds are operated by the Conventual Franciscans of Saint Bonaventure Province. Although our office hours are M-F 8:30am-4:00pm & Sat. 8:30am-1:00pm, our sacred grounds open 365 days per year at 8:00am. For the safety of our visiting families, closing time varies by season and is typically around dusk. Our office is also closed all federal holidays, and most church holidays. REMEMBER: The greatest gift you can give your loved ones is the gift of pre-arranging your final wishes. Ask us how we can help!

As we celebrate the first Friday of our 2026 Lenten journey, we in the Cemetery profession/ministry are particularly mindful of the meaning of the phrase commonly quoted as "ashes to ashes; dust to dust." This paraphrase drawn from the book of Genesis resonates with us as we serve families who come from many different walks of life, but with one common goal... to entrust their loved one's remains, whether the whole body or cremated, to our care and to the care of the generations of cemeterians that will follow us at the sacred grounds of St. Hedwig.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord; and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls, and the souls of all the Faithful Departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen

It will happen some day... and only God knows when. Someone you love will have to be making your funeral plans, and you won't be there any longer to guide them. Would they know where to go or what to do? They will have to answer over 120 questions to a funeral director and cemetery advisor, and most likely will not have those answers right at hand.
They will be in a fog.
We see it every day.
But it doesn't have to be that way. See us for your complimentary personal reference planner. Document everything that your loved ones will need to know. It is the greatest act of love and kindness you can show them. Call us today to make an appointment.

True, Michigan winters are cold, treacherous, disruptive, and can feel like they will go on forever, but they can also be beautiful if we just take a moment to appreciate the beauty. At St. Hedwig, the simple white blanket reminds us of the solace and comfort that comes from our belief in the resurrection of the body! We hope you enjoy

As an active and proud member of our local community, it is important for us to remain connected to the associations and organizations that will enhance our knowledge and skills as we serve our families and our faith. To this end, St. Hedwig Cemetery and Mausoleum is very proud to be a member good standing with three extremely important organizations in our industry/ministry: The Michigan Cemetery Association (MCA), The International Cemetery, Cremation & Funeral Association (ICCFA), and the Catholic Cemetery Conference (CCC). All three are leaders in the industry, and allow us to be connected with other cemeteries as we constantly strive to improve and enhance our service to God and to you, our families!
