We don't all have a crystal ball to predict our future. One of the many things I have heard over my years as a funeral director and experienced this myself was what do we do now????

Just three simple tips to make life easier for your loved ones.
Ensure you will is up to date and a copy is in a safe accessable place. Ensure you have your enduring Power of Attorney in place. If you have made plans with a funeral director make sure your family knows who.

This is an excellent explanation. I could not have explained it better myself 🙏

Would it surprise you to know that cremated remains are tracked throughout the entire process?

In most crematories, identification paperwork stays physically magnetized to the machine or bin holding the remains the whole time. There is also typically a small metal identification disc (ID coin) that stays with the body during cremation and remains with the cremated remains afterward for permanent identification.

Another common misconception to fix: “ashes” are not actually ash like from a fireplace.

What is left after cremation are primarily processed bone fragments like you see in the photo. The soft tissue is reduced by heat, but the skeletal structure doesn’t simply burn away. It calcifies and changes form. Have you seen the ashes under a microscope video?

After the cremation cycle, these fragments are swept with a long metal tined broom from the chamber and placed in a metal container to cool, with the identification paperwork still secured. Once cooled, they are placed into a processor, with a wild name of THE cremulator), which reduces the fragments into the fine, sand-like texture families are familiar with.

This is also why cremated remains can vary in color and texture from lighter, almost white grains to darker gray tones. Factors like temperature, duration, bone density, age, and medical history can all influence the final appearance.

Transparent education matters. Death care doesn’t have to be mysterious and families deserve to understand what truly happens to the people they love. 💚

As a Funeral Director in my past career and now as a Funeral Celebrant. I receive many calls asking for help in arranging a funeral. In my current role I am no longer involved in the nuts and bolts of funeral arrangements, however I am happy to advise what you need to have ready when you do speak with the funeral director. I work with all funerals directors in Greater Brisbane and Moreton Bay area and I am more than happy for you to let the funeral director know I am your preferred funeral celebrant.
What I do not do is bad mouth any funeral company, what I ask is who is your preferred funeral company.
Everyone has to be comfortable with the company they choose and make up their own mind. I cannot empress upon everyone is do your research, and go from there.
