Funeral Directors in ACT

There are few services you will need that are as sensitive or as personal as those provided by a funeral director. The role of a funeral director is one of service. Training and experience enable them to listen to your wishes for a funeral service and then combine them with cultural, religious, financial and legal requirements resulting in a funeral service that is appropriate for your family. The funeral director will then commence the necessary tasks to create the funeral service such as;

• Transportation of the deceased from place of death to the funeral director's mortuary.
• Mortuary care, preparation and dressing of the deceased and placement in their coffin.
• Obtaining cause of death and cremation (if required) certificates from the hospital or treating doctor.
• Completion and lodgement of death registration forms with the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages.
• Obtaining original certified death certificate for later use by family or solicitor.
• Placement of press notices in the newspapers.
• Liaising with clergy or funeral celebrant.
• Organising booking times with church, cemetery or crematorium, floral arrangements, church booklets, musicians etc.
