About Ascension Cemetery
Ascension Cemetery in Airmont, NY, is part of the Calvary & Allied cemeteries network. It was established in 1966 by the Trustees of St. Patrick’s Cathedral to serve Catholic families relocating from New York City to the surrounding counties, using 200 acres of woodland purchased in 1960.
The grounds include five developed sections for ground burial and a chapel mausoleum complex offering both crypts and niches. The entrance features a carved depiction of Christ’s ascension, and a natural pond leads toward the mausoleum, giving the cemetery a reflective, park-like atmosphere.
Monument Services at Ascension Cemetery
At Ascension Cemetery, St. Charles Monuments provides full memorial services to match the dignity and evergreen maintenance of the site. Whether families prefer upright monuments, slant markers, or flat markers, we design, fabricate, and install them with precision. We also specialize in inscriptions and etchings, new lettering, and ornamental detailing tailored to the cemetery’s guidelines. Over time, stone can accumulate grime, moss, or biological growth; our monument cleaning and repair services restore the original beauty of headstones and footstones. For those planning ahead, we offer pre-planning monument consultations so that family wishes are honored without last-minute pressure.
