Making Arrangements

We are here for you. Every step of the way.

Making Funeral Arrangements... 
When you phone us, we will arrange a suitable time to visit you in the comfort of your own home or we can meet at our Westella House. 

At the meeting, we will appoint a family contact who will be our go to person with all the arrangements, ultimately the next of kin or executor of the estate decides this and is responsible for the funeral account.  


We will need to obtain personal information, this is so the deceased person's death can be registered with the Tasmanian Government, we take care of this for you. We ask these questions in a gentle manner, because this information can bring forth a wealth of memories.

Details of the type of funeral will also be discussed. You do not have to make any immediate decisions. Some of the details you need to consider are: burial, cremation, organ donation, sea burial or donation of your person’s body to science.

Then we cover the service elements: funeral location (our chapel, your church, park, beach, club, family home/garden etc), type of coffin & flowers, civil celebrant, religious person or family to officiate the service, music, photos for a video montage, poems/ readings, order of service booklet designs, viewing, wording for newspaper notices, donations collected for a charity/organisation, refreshments and the list goes on!  


After the funeral we can also help you with plaques, urns, thank you cards, and thank you notices in the local paper.
