Father's Day Remembrance Service 2017
Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust was honoured to host over 300 people from our community at the Bunurong Memorial Park Father’s Day Remembrance Service held on Thursday 31 August.
This annual service provides our guests with an avenue to honour and celebrate lives and reflect on cherished memories.
Event partners Templeton Family Funerals, together with the Bunurong team, provided our guests with a warm welcome as they reflected on their cherished memories and wrote their ‘thoughts and wishes’ cards prior to the service commencing.
Celebrant Brendan McGreal hosted this year’s service, paying tribute to the departed fathers and father figures and acknowledging the ongoing influence they have in all of our lives.
Guests lit candles to honour the memory of their fathers and received a small rosemary shrub for remembrance as a memento of the night.
Our thanks to Templeton Family Funerals who partnered with us and all who contributed to deliver this Service for our community.
Remembrance Services are hosted at Bunurong Memorial Park for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Christmas each year. To register your interest to receive more information and invitations to these events, please email events@smct.org.au.
