Established circa 1891, the St. Agatha Cemetery sits in Nanuet, New York. Well-maintained and surrounded by a picturesque stone wall and gate, the Cemetery is the final resting place of members of the Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent De Paul of New York, who dedicated their lives to providing healthcare, childcare, and educational services to those in their community.

In addition, former staff and children from the nearby St. Agatha Home, a children’s service agency and facility, are interred here as well.
