Memorials
A memorial stone or plaque can act as
a catalyst in helping with healing and comfort for those grieving.
For centuries, families have recognised the importance of erecting
memorials to the deceased. These can be elaborate or simple
memorials, but they leave a permanent record of a life and are a
place for families to visit and learn of their past.
Choosing a memorial is a very personal matter, with many options
to choose from, such as lettering, artwork, photos, and so on.
Most cemeteries provide areas suitable for either full burial or
cremation ash interments.
The timing of the placement of memorials is up to the families
involved.
