-
Deciding whether you require a service to be held - If so, when and where the service will be held
-
Organising to have the involvement of a specific organisation or club in the service, if required
-
Selecting special readings, poems, music selections, or photo tributes to be part of the service.
-
Choosing clothing for the deceased to be dressed in
-
Organising if there will be refreshments following the service
Let us Help and Guide you.
We Suggest you follow these five steps.
Step 1 -
Once your loved one has passed, take the time to say your goodbyes. Phone (03) 8689 0062 and our consultant - usually a lady - will give you a call to organise transfers. From here, a time will be organised for her to come and visit you. She will listen to your wishes, explain the process and can make any immediate arrangements that are needed.
Step 2 -
Together, we can plan a suitable funeral, bearing in mind religious or other wishes.
Step 3 -
Together, we will set a budget for the whole process. Eternity provides a dignified funeral as you would expect - but usually at around half the cost of the big funeral directors.
Step 4 -
Once you approve, we will take care of the arrangements in line with your wishes, and you can be secure that there will be no hidden costs.
Step 5 -
The funeral will be held as you wish. We provide a smooth, compassionate service and you will always be in safe hands.
