One of Australia’s very oldest crematoria is the Northern Suburbs Memorial Garden and Crematorium in Sydney. Offering tradition and one of the most beautiful memorial park gardens, it provides a peaceful place for people to reflect on the life of family and friends.
As the number of people who are choosing cremation continues to rise, the issue of whether or not to establish memorials is one that needs continued discussion. While the scattering of cremated remains may be appropriate in some cases, for the majority it deprives people of a place to visit and remember the departed. The decisions regarding cremated remains should not just reflect the wishes of the deceased person but also give future generations an opportunity to have somewhere to learn about the deceased. When you scatter cremated remains, you lose the physical remains almost immediately.
You can’t predict the wishes of future generations. They may feel comforted by the surrounds of a memorial park to help them through the grieving process or they may simply appreciate the chance to have their relatives together in one place, representing their heritage. Memorials have come a long way since the first cremation in Australia. Northern Suburbs Crematorium offers a variety of choice, from rose gardens to the traditional niche wall. The park is an oasis of peace, tranquillity and beauty. The heritage architecture of the chapels is surrounded by a vast garden with some of the most varied plant life in a single Sydney garden. A memorial is worth more than a passing thought. Long after the funeral is over, a memorial at Northern Suburbs Crematorium offers a place to remember in an environment that is unparalleled in the area. A memorial at Northern Suburbs has a maintenance guarantee ensuring a lasting reminder of a life lived and the appreciation of future generations. For more information please call (02) 9887 2033.
