Our life tribute services are centred on crafting personalised and meaningful commemorations, reflecting the unique life led by your loved one. We collaborate intimately with families, striving to highlight all the special qualities, achievements and virtues of the departed.
A cremation with a service can either have the coffin present, followed by the cremation or with the cremation first, followed by a memorial service at a later date. With both options, the ashes are delivered to the family following the cremation taking place.
A Better Way Funerals provides a wide range of funeral services, including cremations, burials, memorial services, pre-planning arrangements and grief support. Our experienced staff are here to guide and assist you every step of the way.
Absolutely! At A Better Way Funerals, we understand the importance of honouring the individuality of your loved one. We offer personalised funeral services tailored to reflect their unique personality, hobbies, interests, or any other special requests you may have.
Pre-planning refers to making funeral arrangements in advance. By pre-planning, you alleviate your family's emotional and financial burden during a difficult time. It ensures your final wishes are explicitly stated, providing you and your loved ones peace of mind.
