This is a Roman Catholic cemetery devoted to the burial of Catholic priests.

This private cemetery is the burial spot for priests who have died while residing at the retirement home for priests of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit , also known as Holy Ghost Fathers. The cemetery is located next to the retirement home, which is at 309 E. Whittier Avenue in Hemet, Riverside County, California, USA. As of May 2022, only two priests remain at this retirement home. The new location for retired priests from this order is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. The order has 4000+ priests working in over 65 countries around the world. This church has its local parish at Holy Spirit Catholic Church at 26340 Soboba Street, in Hemet, located about 3.2 miles east of this cemetery. (This cemetery is not part of Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church, adjacent to the burial ground.) Admittance to the cemetery is only possible, on foot, when the electronic metal gate to the retirement home is open. Once inside the gate, vehicles may park near the cemetery.
