We know that the period after a loved one passes away can be one of the most challenging times in your life. That is why the Bay Cremation Care team is here to help you through the entire process. Our team guarantees that our caring, qualified professional funeral directors will look after you and your loved one throughout the funeral, burial or cremation.

What Does A Funeral Director Do?

A funeral director plays an essential role in helping you create a special final farewell to honour your loved one’s life. Essentially, they are responsible for guiding and assisting you through the entire process of organising a funeral, burial or cremation and helping ensure that everything goes as smoothly as possible.

 

It can be very hard to make clear decisions when you’re grieving, and trying to handle the complications involved with organising a funeral can worsen your existing stress. That’s where a skilled funeral director can play an important part in helping you put together the right send-off for your loved one.

Your first meeting with your funeral director will often take place very soon after your loved one has died. Your funeral director will be able to assist you from the very beginning of the process, right from the transfer of your loved one from their place of death through to the burial or cremation. They arrange everything to do with the funeral service itself, prepare and casket the body and even assist you with legal details.
