Over 65 members of the Sydney funeral industry recently gathered to celebrate the launch of Catholic Cemeteries & Crematoria Rookwood new area, the Way of the Cross Memorial Gardens.
Peter O’Meara, CEO of Catholic Cemeteries & Crematoria, says that it is part of their mission to ensure that services are relevant for the Sydney community. “We are looking at innovative ways we can renew existing cemeteries such as Rookwood, and meet the expanding needs of the Greater Western Sydney area”.
Catholic Cemeteries & Crematoria announced at the launch an exceptional value offering for families with a number of inclusive options that allow families to pre-purchase cremations and inter their loved ones.
“In the current economic climate, particularly with older people having lost significant amounts of superannuation, and living in tighter financial circumstances, it is important to us that we offer families affordable funeral options that are of a high quality. We have consulted with funeral directors and the feedback is that it offers very good value.”
A complete package of cremation, service, niche and memorial plaque is being offered at $1680, and a prepaid cremation service is $780.
