Memorial options

 

There are many options available to help capture the spirit of each individual. Memorials can be as personal as one desires and can reflect cultural and religious integrity.

InvoCare Memorial Parks and Gardens endeavour to adhere to all specific requirements. Our consultants will assist you by explaining all available options and answering all of your questions so that you may make informed and appropriate decisions.

Prearrange a memorial

You might have heard about prearranged funerals, but did you know that you can also prearrange a memorial? Prearranging a memorial for yourself or for your whole family ensures that your specific instructions will be carried out, and most importantly, it takes the burden of making decisions on your behalf away from loved ones at a difficult and emotional time. Prepaying the memorial means you pay today's price for your memorial, and it will be there for you and your family when the time comes.
