Coffin Interment Options and Memorials
Taking the step for either pre-arranging your interment place or planning for a loved one or friend is a special task. We understand the importance of finding the most appropriate burial location and funeral options. We have several areas available, each with their own style of memorial or headstone.
Glenmorus is set in beautiful, manicured garden surroundings nestling against native bushland and since we opened in 1970, we have helped care for over 24,000 families with both cremation and coffin interment memorials in that time. We very much hope that there is something here at Glenmorus to suit.
The following provides a brief description of the different coffin interment options available. All the Glenmorus team hope you find comfort and peace of mind in our beautiful memorial park.
